Chuck Leavell and STIHL

Chuck Leavell, one of the most respected keyboardists in rock and roll history and current keyboardist for The Rolling Stones, is also one of the world’s leading conservationists. He and his wife Rose Lane have created Charlane Plantation–the award-winning tree farm near Macon, Georgia. Twice named Outstanding Tree Farmer for Georgia, and garnering the National Outstanding Tree Farmer award, Leavell has also been recognized by the National Arbor Day Foundation, the Georgia Conservancy, and many other conservation organizations. He currently serves as a spokesperson for the Georgia Forestry Association and the American Tree Farm System.

Leavell is the author of three books: "Between Rock and a Home Place", "Forever Green" and the children's book "The Tree Farmer", which was recognized with the American Farm Bureau Foundation for Agriculture’s Book of the Year award.

STIHL is excited to partner with Chuck Leavell in helping to educate the country about the importance of conservation and tree farming.
