Holly Henderson

December 9, 2024

Holly Henderson is a fourth-generation East Texas landowner. Holly and her two sisters collectively own multiple functioning pine plantations around East Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Florida, with their primary focus in East Texas. They approach land management with the goal of maintaining a healthy balance between economic growth and implementing sustainable forest management best practices. The Henderson family is passionate about longleaf pine conservation and wildlife preservation and has worked with the National Wild Turkey Federation and Texas Parks and Wildlife to re-establish the Wild Turkey population in Angelina County. Through this partnership, the Family introduced close to 100 turkeys onto their property over the last four years. They are also working with a start-up company to research the effects of natural fungal biomes in inoculated seedlings while promoting carbon sequestration through their forests. Holly’s true love is being in the natural world, hiking, hunting, fishing, and enjoying the quiet solitude of the forests. When not in East Texas, Holly follows her love of the wild outdoors through travel. She looks forward to further supporting The Longleaf Alliance through her service on the Board of Directors.
