Welcome to the Pisgah Chapter Blog

The purpose of this blog is to keep Society of American Foresters members current with Pisgah Chapter activities. I will make every effort to keep this site current with information that is pertinent to the natural resources professional. This site should also serve as a forum for you, providing an open dialog among members, regarding forestry related issues or topics that you feel are important. I hope that you take some time to be apart of this exchange. Cheers! Blair

First in Forestry License Plate


In recognition of the importance of forestry in North Carolina, and the state's status as the birthplace of professional forestry in the United States, the N.C. General Assembly has approved a special "First in Forestry" license plate. $10 of the $30 fee collected for each plate will go toward forestry education programs in the state.
The Division of Forest Resources is now accepting applications and checks for the first 300 license plates. If you would like to proudly display your support for N.C. forestry, please make your request via the form below and mail it and your check (payable to the First in Forestry License Plate fund) to:
Dianne Beasley, Assistant DirectorDivision of Forest Resources1616 Mail Service CenterRaleigh, NC 27699-1616
. The NC Division of Motor Vehicles will not accept applications until we have collected the first 300.
Your First in Forestry plate will be mailed directly to you by DMV. While waiting for your plate, continue to keep your present plate registration current. Your new Forestry registration (tag) will have the same expiration date as your current tag. DMV will track this and will include information with your new plate.
Note: First in Forestry plates can be purchased for “weighted” vehicles (including buses and camping trailers) from 7,000 pounds up to 26,000 pounds. The plate will not be marked as weighted, but the registration will indicate its status.
