How to use "Forest" in context?
Forest is an area dominated by trees, typically interior and relatively remote from human influences. A forest can be either natural or artificial. The natural forest stands of eastern North America are apparently much older than previously believed, with trees estimated to be over 1,000 years old. In temperate areas, forests usually grow in moist environments with a significant amount of rainfall. Artificial forests are managed by forest management companies.
