Foresting
Foresting is method of gathering resources. Foresting involves the player having the villagers cut down nearby trees. The logs can then be used in building structures or creating firewood to cook food and heat citizens's houses.
Deforestation without the use of a Forester's Lodge should be done with care. First of all forests will regrow on their own, but very slowly and only if there are nearby trees. Also mature trees spawn other resources such as roots, onions and herbs, which can be collected by gatherers and herbalists. Resources such as these won't spawn without nearby trees. It seems that the idea of ancient forests haven't been implemented and that resources such as herbs spawn depending on the number of mature trees in the area. [1]

The Forester's Lodge enables foresters to cut down nearby trees but also to re-plant them. You can chose if you want the foresters to only plant trees, only cut down trees or do both. If you chose to place a Forester's Lodge in an area without trees they will plant new trees, but they cannot cut these down in a couple of years. In the process of planting new trees the foresters will remove stone and iron and take these to the nearest stockpile.
