Welcome to 
Kentucky Heartwood!

Kentucky Heartwood is a not-for-profit organization and community of individuals dedicated to the health and well-being of Kentucky's native forests. We are driven by a reverence and respect for wild nature, a love of old trees, and the dream of a future where the rich forests of our region are once again allowed to grow old for their benefit and ours. 

We are a mostly volunteer organization, and your support matters. Please consider joining Kentucky Heartwood today.
