*** About Michigan Forests: Michigan's forests are as diverse as they are extensive, covering nearly 20 million acres, which is about 53% of the state's land area. From the maple-beech and birch dominating the Upper Peninsula to the oak-hickory woodlands of the Lower Peninsula, each forest type contributes to the overall biodiversity and ecological richness of the region. These forests not only provide habitat for wildlife but also play a vital role in the economy through both the timber industry and tourism. Additionally, Michigan's forests are a pivotal part of the state's battle against climate change, acting as important carbon sinks.
