Planting seedlings after a harvest or wildfire is a critical step to support the cycle of forest health, resilience, and growth. The planting of over 300 million seedlings on Sierra Pacific\u2019s timberlands is a testament to this commitment. This year alone, SPI planted 12.4 million seedlings on its lands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis milestone represents the culmination of decades of hard work and dedication by our team,\u201d said SPI CEO Mark Emmerson. \u201cIt reflects our vision for a more sustainable future. We want to put back more than we take.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Sierra Pacific has established a new conifer seedling nursery that will, at full capacity, grow 25 million seedlings per year. These seedlings will be planted on Sierra Pacific land, as well as state, federal and other private forestlands.<\/p>\n<p>Sierra Pacific\u2019s integrated approach to forest management includes ongoing nurturing, careful management, and a seamless connection to its sawmills and products. This ensures that every tree planted supports the forest ecosystem, wildlife, clean water and air, while also providing a reliable source of logs for the sawmills and the sustainable products they manufacture.<\/p>\n<p>Supported by a team of forestry professionals and guided by the latest scientific advancements, Sierra Pacific is dedicated to growing forests for the future. This milestone of planting 300 million trees and the investment in the conifer seedling nursery demonstrate Sierra Pacific\u2019s generational commitment to leaving a lasting legacy.<\/p>\n<p>###<\/p>\n<p>Sierra Pacific Industries is a third-generation, family-owned forest products company based in Anderson, California.
