In recent years, awareness of sustainable agricultural practices has grown exponentially, and Forestry Services has emerged as a leader in this movement. In 2024, during the Organic Farm Walks, Forestry Services will be one of the main exhibitors, offering a unique perspective on how the integration of forestry and agricultural practices can create more sustainable and efficient production systems.

Forestry Services has been working to educate farmers and the public about the benefits of these practices, which include:
- Increased Biodiversity: The integration of trees and other plants into agricultural landscapes helps to increase biodiversity, providing habitats for a wide range of flora and fauna.
- Soil Quality Improvement: Trees play a crucial role in maintaining and improving soil quality by fixing nutrients and preventing erosion.
- Carbon Sequestration: Planting trees is one of the most effective ways to capture carbon from the atmosphere, helping to mitigate the effects of climate change.
