ECOSYSTEM OF PROJECTS
Our collaborative projects seek to create impact across the following focus areas:
-
CARBON & CLIMATE
We work to integrate, and share, the positive impacts of healthy forests on carbon sequestration and climate accomplished through regenerative forest stewardship and the reestablishment of local infrastructure to create regional, circular wood economies.
-
ECOLOGY
Forests and living landscapes provide more than ecosystem services. Our Ecology focus area compiles ecological considerations, positive multiplier effects, and shares resources and best practices for those interacting with our forest ecosystems.
-
EDUCATION
We support community engagement, education, and outreach. Our collaborative approach engages regional organizations and agencies to support impactful forest health and land stewardship projects through outreach, convening stakeholders, and more.
-
WOOD PRODUCTS
Our Wood Products focus area researches and implements projects that seek to increase the utilization of wood. This includes researching infrastructure gaps, conducting feasibility studies, and engaging stakeholders to design and align on desired outcomes at a community-scale.
Regenerative Forest Solutions
works to achieve the
following goals:
Increase forest health.
Support sustainable wood utilization for renewable and vibrant local economies.
Improve community and ecological resilience to climate change.
Provide educational opportunities and resources to support active stewardship of our working lands and forest ecosystems.
Focus Area: Wood Products
Healthy forests are key for well-functioning watersheds, biodiversity, carbon sequestration, good air quality, fire resilience, and more. We’re exploring regional infrastructure needs that will enable more regenerative forest stewardship and wood utilization.
The recent article in Bay Nature Magazine (link on the right), outlines a few challenges toward increasing forest stewardship and wood utilization on public and private lands.
