Green Diamond Resource Company’s California Timberlands operations received the coveted Forest Stewardship Council-US 2024 Leadership Award last month.
Elk Creek Forest Products, McMinnville, Or., also was honored with a 2024 2024 FSC Leadership Award for being the largest and longest-standing supplier of FSC-certified Douglas fir construction products in the Pacific Northwest.
Green Diamond’s Korbel, Ca.-based operations were recognized for producing over 1 billion bd. ft. of FSC-certified logs since obtaining certification in 2013 on 440,662 acres of predominately redwood and Douglas fir forests in California.
“Everyone on our team, from across regions and divisions, is honored to be included in a list of FSC Leadership Award winners who exemplify forward-thinking, innovation-driven forest management practices,” said Douglas Reed, president of Green Diamond, Seattle, Wa. “Our decade-long focus on the science of modern forest management demonstrates Green Diamond’s consistency in producing sustainable wood-products used in homes across the world. As a sixth-generation, family-owned business, this award truly encapsulates our commitment to long-term forest management that benefits wildlife, fish and communities.”
