Võrumaa Metsaühistu

One of the oldest operating forest owners associations in Estonia, the Võrumaa Metsaühistu, was established in 1996 by 13 forest owners in Võru County.

However, the association’s activities really took off for the first time in 2005, when Erki Sok took over its management. The Võrumaa Metsaühistu advises and assists members with forest land of all sizes, although a recent noticeable increase has been seen in the number of members with smaller forest holdings. Today, the Võrumaa Metsaühistu has over 1400 members and is the largest forest owner’s association in Estonia.

FSC Certification. Metsaühistu

FSC Certification

Since 16.10.2013, the Central Cooperative of Private Forests has been managing the FSC forest certification.

The FSC certificate ensures that raw materials are separated from non-certified and uncontrolled forest material throughout the supply chain, making it possible to determine the origin of the material and trace it to the final product.
