Morning brainworm: I am 95 percent sure this pic was taken on the Whitewater Trail, pre-Whitewater Fire. So, ironically given the story, this spot has been burned TWICE since it was taken, I am pretty sure.

Grow. Harvest. Replant. This is how we make sure forests + forest products are climate solutions, not climate problems #forestproud #forestproductsweek #forests4climate #ClimateSolution #ClimateAction #Carbon

It’s day 1 of #ForestProductsWeek! We manage our own forest lands and trees from “forest to finish.” Meaning we’re involved from propagation & planting to harvesting & manufacturing. We use the full tree & the biomass from our mills to power some of our facilities!
