ABOUT

Located in the Appalachian Mountains of Tennessee, Doe Mountain is an improved forest management project. It includes over 8,000 acres of mixed hardwoods and ensures that the recreation area’s trail and infrastructure improvements are financially covered while conserving Doe Mountain’s stunning landscape and improving wildlife habitat. This project protects this land from alternative uses like subdivision and development or timber harvesting.
