Forest Management
Ossipee Mountain Land Company evolved out of land holdings purchased in 1978. Our combined ownership and long-term management of 15,000 aces of New Hampshire forestlands has been and continues to be managed to provide for future biodiversity in an ecologically, culturally, and financially responsible and sustainable manner.

To provide a source of raw material for our firewood packing facility
To protect and create wildlife habitats for a variety of species
To add adjacent lands as practicable to enable assemblage of a larger contiguous parcel of productive forestlands
