AFRC’s Matt Comisky recently joined the Pinchot Partners and South Gifford Pinchot Collaborative for a field tour of Washington’s Gifford Pinchot National Forest.

AFRC works with a diverse range of stakeholders, including conservation groups, local governments, timber industry representatives, tribes, and recreation groups, to advance forest restoration and improve management of our national forests.

These collaborative partnerships bring different perspectives to the table, helping build support for projects that improve forest health, reduce wildfire risk, and support local communities.

Reliable funding makes a difference when communities plan for the future.

AFRC's Matt Comisky explains how timber revenue from Washington’s state trust lands helps schools maintain facilities, libraries invest in technology and fire districts purchase the equipment they need to respond to emergencies.

Consistent timber harvests provide predictable revenue that helps these essential public services plan ahead and meet the needs of their communities.

Strong partnerships are essential to improving forest management on our national forests.

Last week, the Federal Timber Purchasers Coalition (FTPC) gathered in Rapid City, South Dakota, for its fall meeting, including a field tour of the Bearlodge Ranger District on Wyoming’s Black Hills National Forest.

Timber purchasers, industry representatives, and public lands managers discussed challenges and opportunities facing federal timber programs, with a shared focus on improving forest health, reducing wildfire risk, and supporting a strong forest products industry.

AFRC's Tom Partin recently led a visit to the Tonasket Ranger District on Washington's Colville National Forest, where he captured these photos of two western larch trees estimated to be more than 900 years old.

These remarkable trees are located within a botanical reserve near the upcoming Buckhorn Project. The Forest Service plans to thin surrounding forests outside the reserve to reduce wildfire risk and help protect these ancient trees for future generations.

The Buckhorn Project will treat approximately 30,000 acres, demonstrating how active forest management can reduce wildfire risk while protecting the natural treasures that make our national forests special.

Kudos to the Colville National Forest for moving this important work forward!

The forest products industry is a major source of family wage jobs across America, supporting workers and communities from the woods to the mills.

This National Forest Products Week, we're celebrating the hardworking Americans whose livelihoods depend on sustainable forestry and the businesses that strengthen rural economies and help keep forests as forests.

It's National Forest Products Week, a time to recognize the importance of America's forests and the people who turn sustainable wood into products we use every day.

From building materials to paper and packaging, forest products are all around us. Behind these products are hardworking loggers, truck drivers, mill workers, foresters, and businesses that support good paying jobs and help sustain rural communities.

America's forest products industry also plays a vital role in responsible forest management, helping keep our forests healthy and productive for future generations.

This week, we celebrate the people, products, and managed forests that contribute so much to our economy and quality of life.
