Please note that for winter, Magness Memorial Tree Farm will be open on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of each month. See the announcement here.
Magness Memorial Tree Farm
Located in Sherwood, Oregon, Magness Memorial Tree Farm is private property owned and operated by World Forestry Center. The land was donated by generous local residents Howard and Panzy Magness. The forest and facilities have been managed by World Forestry Center since 1977.
Originally developed as a demonstration site for woodland owners to showcase forest management and silviculture, Magness is open to the general public on the 1st & 3rd Monday from 8am to 3pm. With 2.5 miles of hiking trails, sheltered picnic areas, meadows, streams and forests, it is the perfect place to spend a day in the woods.
Sustainable Forest Management in Practice
In late 2020, we performed a maintenance harvest at Magness – our first in over 20 years.
