Clackamas County Chapter
Clackamas County Farm Forestry Association, Inc. (CCFFA), is a chapter of the Oregon Small Woodlands Association (OSWA).
Formed in 1957, CCFFA is a non-profit organization of woodland owners and Christmas tree growers. We have organized to more effectively promote sound forest management and the interests of forest land owners.
Our activities include educating forest landowners, the public, and policy makers, promoting legislation, and advocating cooperation with all partner agencies.
