About Us

The Zeman family passion for stewardship philosophy was sparked by Howard, a decorated Vietnam War Vet whose career with the US Forest Service spanned over 32 years. He was an integral part in the shared stewardship concept of utilizing multiple partners to accomplish forest conservation goals. Stewardship West is continuing the tradition with a boots- on- the- ground, action focused approach to ensuring the health and welfare of our forests for current and future generations.
