Established in 2016, the Virginia Century Forest Program recognizes those individuals and families who have made a long-term commitment to enhancing the environment and protecting the quality of life for their fellow Virginians through forestry. The program honors families in the Commonwealth whose property has been in the same family for 100 years or more and includes at least 20 contiguous acres of managed forest. The Century Forest designation is intended to be an honorary recognition for landowners of qualifying properties.
The application form and process provide landowners an opportunity to demonstrate how their family property meets the program criteria and attest that the information provided is true and accurate to the best of their knowledge.
