Wisconsin ACF
Keeping Wisconsin Strong
The Wisconsin Chapter of Consulting Foresters was formed in 1980 with Edward F. Steigerwaldt, Sr. as the first Wisconsin Chapter President. As an early member of the National ACF, Ed quickly saw the need for highly-skilled consultant foresters to work with private land owners. Collectively the Wisconsin ACF represents forest interests in the state.
