Kesk-Eesti Metsaühistu
Kesk-Eesti Metsaühistu, formerly known as Vooremaa Metsaühistu, is one of the youngest forest associations in Estonia, established in 2012. Over the years, it has grown into a medium-sized cooperative, with nearly 800 forest owners as members. The Vooremaa Metsaühistu was founded by its chairman, Harry Pütsepp, who, after working as a consultant for RMK and several associations, saw the need to create an independent forest owners association in the region.
It was the Vooremaa Metsaühistu that was the first to start drawing up forest management plans. It is important for the association that a forest owner be able to contact the association as easily as possible, which is why an office was also opened in Tartu.
In October 2024, the association adopted the name Kesk-Eesti Metsaühistu to better reflect its expanded area of operation.

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.
