Planting red pine plantations #931907

Asked May 16, 2026, 2:16 PM EDT

I have a plantation of 5 ish acres of mature red pine I will be harvesting this summer. Are there grants or programs available to replant this plantation along with 10-15 acres of very mature aspen that will be clear cut alongside the plantation.

Houghton County Michigan

Expert Response

Hi Johnny,
I'm not sure there are funds available to help replant the red pines. The aspen will repopulate the area en mass, so shouldn't need to plant that section. 

To learn what's available, I would recommend reaching out to the Natural Resources Conservation Service, or NRCS. Looks like the Baraga Office services Houghton County:

Thank you,
-Julie
