Expand the diversity of native species and prevent the loss of culturally-important species within the Tribe’s forested areas. Traditionally, tribal members harvested and used resources from a wide variety of trees, bushes, grasses, and roots. Enhancing the diversity of tree species, both the genetic diversity within a species and the number of species on the landscape, will help limit the extent of disturbance from extreme weather and changing climate conditions. Active management can include traditional practices and proactively planting and replanting native and future climate tolerant seedlings in restoration areas and post disturbance in re-growth areas. It may also include setting aside areas for restoration to a traditional forest structure.
