Why support Friends of the ACFL this spring?
With spring in full bloom, we are filled with gratitude for the support of friends β like you! - who make our work possible. We are delighted to share the growth and impact of our forest education programs and new offerings to come in 2024! But we need your help to continue to offer free programming for people of all ages to learn about, and care for, our amazing community forest lands.
Coming Soon: Our new Forest Discovery Center

We have recently moved to a new location in the heart of downtown Anacortes and are looking forward to expanding our offerings, presence, and partnerships in the community at our new space.
Little Cranberry Lake + Forest Management Plan Update
On April 6th, 2023 the Forest Advisory Board (FAB) began their process of reviewing and revising the Anacortes Community Forest Lands Plan, the guiding document for the management of the ACFL. The Forest Plan contains a breakdown of the history of the forest lands, the different areas of the ACFL, the goals for the management of the ACFL, and the policies and practices in place to achieve those goals.
