Not really, no, though there are logging operations and they sometimes ruin large swaths of land by planting shit like a whole forest of pine where there used to be a healthy mixed forest.

This area is pretty heavily wooded yet, though. The fields that are here are old, generations back stuff with more natural boundaries, rows of wind-break trees between fields and the like, swampy areas left in field corners. We aren’t really adding new farmland here either, in fact there are incentive programs to reforest former farmland. Often old farmland is used for development.

We do pull stuff out if we are developing the property, sure, but otherwise no, most land is left pretty natural.
