OSWA's History

On April 22, 1960 a group of small woodland owners, who were concerned about issues unique to small woodland owners, filed articles of incorporation with the state for the Small Woodlands Association. The original Board was all from Lane County. Over time, small woodland owners from other counties joined and in 1966 the name was changed to Oregon Small Woodlands Association. For over 50 years OSWA has helped to serve the needs of small woodland owners in Oregon.
