You've heard of fruit orchards, how about Douglas fir orchards.

We enjoy them for the beauty, recreation, and wilderness. But many of our forests begin life in seed orchards. The seeds grown in Bureau of Land Management seed orchards furnish timber companies, restoration projects, and landscapers across the world with stronger, faster growing trees as well as sustainable income for the state.
