Mission Statement
The purpose of the Northwest Illinois Forestry
Association (NIFA) is to promote awareness and
achievement of the benefits of forest management,
including both economic and environmental values.
NIFA is a non-profit organization incorporated in
1986. Our organization is self-organized,
self-supported, and self-run. We started as a
six-county organization, but now have members
statewide. The six counties where we primarily focus
our activities are Carroll, Jo Daviess, Lee, Ogle,
Stephenson, and Whiteside in Illinois.
The association brings together interested individuals
and tree farmers who share a common interest in
forestry, whether they own forest land or not.
