Cabin owners, we have learned, feel a sense of responsibility to contribute or give back to the national organization as well as to their local tracts, forests and neighboring communities - and we have fun doing it! The NFH Economic Benefit Study (2022) found that the cabin community volunteers over 145 thousand hours of their time annually! Cabin owners often mention volunteering as a recreation activity on surveys.
