Forests
SNW envisions a future where a mosaic of forest ownership generates substantial, stable, and valuable ecological and economic benefits in the Pacific Northwest. We work with key stakeholders to support forest restoration, community management, and the development of new markets.

I support Sustainable Northwest because its professionals develop innovative strategies to solve problems in ways that benefit both people and the environment in the Pacific Northwest. In today's fractious world, it is refreshing to find an organization like Sustainable Northwest that works on finding environmental solutions that help people achieve their goals.
