Chatswood Forest Partnership was the 72nd forest established by Roger Dickie (NZ) Ltd and is situated 35 km West of Gisborne on the Wharekopae Road. Chatswood Forest adjoins Heywood, Eastwood and Woodside forests.

In 2021 Chatswood had an estimated net stocked area of 317 hectares. Having been planted in 2000, the main harvest is due to commence in 2028 with a smaller stand of older trees to be harvested when road-lining is undertaken in 2026. Harvest will likely take approximately 3 years. The harvested areas will be replanted each Winter.
