“We’re very proud of these men for not only developing the skill set, but the mindset that they both want to be running a business and want to be employing other former inmates.” –New Mexico’s State Forester Laura McCarthy

Very cool story about some former inmates at a New Mexico prison who took the forestry skills they learned while locked up and started a fire prevention company when they were released. The boys at All Around Forestry all participated in the same state-run forestry program while serving time.

When they got out they started the company and now it’s fully staffed by ex-inmates. These dudes provide a super valuable service that keeps the wild spots on the map a bit safer. Encouraging to see transitions like this and wanted to give their company a shoutout. If you need forestry services and live in the Albuquerque area, consider All Around Forestry.
