Ken Ford

Ken is a Registered Forester and a 40-year resident of Hersey Township, Osceola County, Michigan. He manages 30,000 acres of privately owned timber as well as several public school, township and county owned forests, primarily in the Central Lower Peninsula of Michigan. His work has involved forests in every watershed in Osceola County. Throughout the past 40 years, Ken has come to realize that all the wetlands, rivers, creeks, springs and seeps in Osceola County, are interconnected. He views the corporatization of water such as that requested by Nestle and Michigan Potash Company as a very real threat to our local wells, streams, forests and the Muskegon River.
