Located in the corner of Northeast Oregon, Wallowa County was once one of Oregon’s major timber producers. But changes in federal land management and decades of fire suppression have left the forests in rapidly declining health, while mill closures have left the communities reeling. Heartwood Biomass products support restorative forest management while helping to restore the economic health of the community in the process.

Heartwood makes products out of the wood others throw away, like scrap from forest waste, forest thinning, and wildfire mitigation projects. The result is wood that not only helps preserve the forests, but also helps preserve jobs in rural communities.
