Gov. Justice launches West Virginia Ruffed Grouse and Wildlife Restoration program
Initiative will enhance wildlife habitats and support local economies through innovative land management practices
[link removed]
Gov. Justice announced ([link removed]) the launch of the West Virginia Ruffed Grouse and Wildlife Restoration Program, a groundbreaking initiative to enhance wildlife habitats through the strategic planting of soft mast-producing trees and shrubs on recently harvested private timberlands.

This innovative program is designed to provide vital food sources for a variety of wildlife species, including ruffed grouse, white-tailed deer and songbirds, while also benefiting landowners and local economies. It will be administered through a cooperative effort led by the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources and West Virginia Division of Forestry.

“We’ve been working for quite some time to launch this program, and let me tell you, I am extremely excited to announce its launch,” Gov. Justice said. “As a lifelong hunter and angler, I’m so proud of the work my administration has done to invest in West Virginia and promote our state’s world-class natural resources. The strides made in this program will greatly boost our wildlife, from grouse to deer and on and on, while also becoming a huge economic driver. This program is the real deal, and I cannot wait to see how it benefits landowners, our wildlife, and our economy.”

This year’s Christmas ornament beautifully showcases West Virginia’s iconic State Capitol building, as seen from the south side overlooking the Kanawha River. Adding a playful touch, West Virginia’s beloved First Dog, Babydog, is featured to the side of the Capitol. The West Virginia state flag proudly waves in the upper right corner, tying together this heartfelt tribute to our state’s heritage and charm.

“We wanted this year’s ornament to be a special tribute, tying together the incredible eight years we’ve spent as West Virginia’s First Family,” First Lady Justice said. “This state and its people mean the world to Jim and me, and it has been the honor of a lifetime to serve as your Governor and First Lady. Our Capitol building is a breathtaking symbol of West Virginia, and we knew it had to be at the heart of this design—along with Babydog, of course, who had to make her mark!”
