An association that timberland owners founded in 1941 to get a stronger voice in matters affecting their business, and that still speaks in Washington for the families and companies who manage private forests for an economic return, many of them across four and five generations.

The outside view
An association that timberland owners founded in 1941 to get a stronger voice in matters affecting their business, and that still speaks in Washington for the families and companies who manage private forests for an economic return, many of them across four and five generations.

Their shape
The League
Far-flung, and stronger for it.
The League is a federation of many, where the value lives in the connections between its members and chapters. Its gift is reach and resilience, its challenge is holding a shared identity across all its parts.
Also reads toward The Legacy and The Village.
