Realizing forest health through responsible wood products.
Timbershed manufactures wood products that reduce wildfire risk, restore ecosystems, and build a vibrant, circular, forest stewardship economy.
Every Forested-Community Needs a Timbershed
This public-private partnership (P3) model is designed to:
Establish a wood-based bioeconomy rooted in ecological forest stewardship
Reduce wildfire risk across priority landscapes
Create skilled, living-wage jobs in forestry, manufacturing, and procurement
Preserve critical rural infrastructure under threat of conversion
Serve as a replicable model for community-scale projects across California
Anchored by a sawmill and manufacturing facility, Timbershed processes trees (6” and up) that would otherwise be chipped, piled, or burned.
Coming to Sonoma County, CA
Transforming wildfire risk into economic opportunity.
“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.”
