Julius Valentine Hofmann
In recognition of
Julius Valentine Hofmann
This Hofmann Forest, a 78,000 acre tract established in 1934 and dedicated to demonstrate sound forestry education and practice, is the result of the pioneering vision, energy and resourcefullness of the first Director of the School of Forestry at North Carolina State University.
The Board of Directors of the N.C. Forestry Foundation, Inc. erected this monument as an honor to this outstanding forester.
Marker can be reached from the intersection of New Bern Highway (U.S. 17), on the right when traveling south.
