Non-timber 森林产品
A forest produces much more than lumber. If you have ever been huckleberry picking or collected cones for a craft project, you have been the beneficiary of a non-timber forest product. Acquaint yourself with some of the many specialty products grown and harvested from the forests of Idaho.
Christmas Trees, High-Value Hardwood Plantations and 防风林
活的圣诞树, high-value hardwood plantations and windbreaks are less traditional forest products that provide us with aesthetic and monetary benefits.
