Common Uses for Birch
The Declining Birch Population in Wisconsin

MTE puts these practices into place in our Menominee forest. We guarantee our forest has the proper soil, fertilization and insect treatments to properly maintain birch trees. Our sustainable forest management practices preserve the local birch population in Wisconsin.
