MSU Extension Forestry is a branch of the MSU Extension Service and is housed cooperatively with The University of Montana - W.A. Franke College of Forestry and Conservation in Missoula, Montana.

Extension Forestry provides forest landowner education programs ranging from core Forest Stewardship Planning Workshops to topic specific workshops like Windbreaks/Living Snowfences, Alternative Forest Management Practices, Wildfire Hazard Reduction, and Tree Pruning & Care.

Extension Forestry also provides outreach through various tools including a calendar, news-releases, brochures and publications.
