Certification
Join group certification
Group certification is the easiest and most effortless way for a forest owner to join the EverCover certificate and start managing the forest in a nature-friendly way.
In group certification, several forest owners are covered by the same certificate, which is administered as a group. This keeps costs reasonable, as they are shared among multiple owners.
Forest service companies authorized by AEFC provide the group certification service and take care of the administrative obligations on your behalf. You don’t need to worry about extra paperwork—you can focus on forest management.
How to apply
Submit an application in the AEFC-Registry.
Enter the details of the forest property to be certified and your contact information on the form.
In the application, select an AEFC-approved forest service company that provides group certification. (You may contact the company in advance if you wish.)
The group certifier will contact you as soon as possible and propose how to implement the certification.
When certification is complete, you can practice nature-friendly EverCover forestry and sell timber as EverCover-certified.
