Restoring forests, building resilience.
Every Forested-Community Needs a Timbershed
The project is designed to:
Increase regional utilization of wood resources that are presently chipped, piled or burned
Reduce wildfire risk and improve forest health
Create skilled, living-wage jobs in forestry, manufacturing, and procurement
Preserve critical infrastructure under threat of conversion
Serve as a model for Timbershed’s work to connect regional wood product manufacturers
Timbershed is working to purchase the site featured above and develop it into a wood campus.
Sonoma County, CA
Building upon over $1M in support from CAL FIRE, US Forest Service, the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation, Bay Area Council Foundation, and other private and public resources, Timbershed and its partners are ready to scale at this site.
Transforming wildfire risk into economic opportunity.
Timbershed provides a critical economic solution to improve forest health and mitigate wildfires by supporting the use of wood that has no place to go.
“Just as infrastructure is necessary for the production and distribution of food, energy and water, a wood products campus is critical infrastructure to effectively manage our forests.”
