Announcing the 9th American Forest Congress, July 15-18, 2025, at the iconic Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, DC. This is an opportunity to engage with leaders in forestry and conservation—and help shape the health and future of our forests!

The American Forest Congress is a proud tradition that has influenced the direction of forest conservation and management in America for more than a century. Since the first American Forest Congress in 1882 to the most recent in 2022, these seminal events have led directly to major outcomes in the forestry sector, including the creation of the U.S. Forest Service, the establishment of the eastern National Forests, new community-based and collaborative approaches to forestry, and efforts to ensure women and allies lead the way in diversifying leadership within the forest community.
