A New Way of Doing Business in Our Forests and Communities!
At
Appalachian Sustainable Development/Sustainable Woods, we
recognize that the strength of the local economy is closely
linked to the long-term health and productivity of our
forests. Rather than simply viewing this resource as a
short-term commodity, we see our forests as long-term
investments. Through proper stewardship, quality forest
products can be periodically obtained while at the same time
enhancing our natural environment, protecting air and water
quality, conserving biodiversity and wildlife, and providing
recreational opportunities.
