Virginia Tree-Seed
Law Amended
The 1968 General Assembly amended the Virginia Seed Tree Law effective July 1, 1968. District Forester D. G. Wilfong, Jr., for the Northern Piedmont District of the Virginia Division of Forestry, briefly explained the law as follows: The amended law requires the leaving of 8 or 16 pine trees when timber is harvested; prior to the amendment, only 4 or 8 pine trees were required. There was no change in the number of yellow poplar trees required to be left standing for seed trees. Wilfong further stated the pine species covered by law are shortleaf, loblolly, white, and pond pine. Reserved seed trees remain the property of the landowner but shall not be cut for at least 5 years following logging. The law does not apply on certain tracts of timber being cut; nor to forest land for which a reforestation plan has been approved by the State Forester; nor to land being cleared for BONA FIDE agricultural or sub-division purposes.
Landowners selling timber and forest product operators are requested to contact any employee of the Virginia Division of Forestry for further information.
