Forestry: Why It's A Growing Field With Endless Career Potential

Huntin' Land Podcast

On this episode of the Huntin’ Land podcast we interview Stephanie Fuller from Forestry Works about careers in the forestry industry. We discuss the misconceptions many people have about forestry being limited to jobs like logging and forestry, when in reality there is a wide range of career opportunities from business roles like accounting and marketing to more technical positions using new technologies like drones. Stephanie explains how the forestry industry in Alabama has a $36 billion annual economic impact and employs over 120,000 people. She highlights the diverse career paths available, the industry's focus on sustainability, and the efforts to recruit the next generation of forestry workers through partnerships with schools and communities. Stephanie emphasizes the potential for growth and innovation in the forestry industry for those with an entrepreneurial mindset.
