Did you know that you can get reimbursed for reforesting or creating new forests?

Reforesting and creating new forests can be costly. Site prep, seedlings and planting require extensive upfront investments.

That's why the Florida Forest Service recently launched the Sequestering Carbon and Protecting Florida Land program. This new cost-share program is designed to help landowners make the long-term investments required to establish or maintain forestland while offsetting carbon emissions.

Eligible species include slash, longleaf, loblolly and sand pine trees. The minimum number of eligible acres is 20; the maximum is 250.
