This mill will bring jobs to the community and will offer lower cost lumber for rebuilding, reducing the burden on residents who may not otherwise be able to afford building costs. We are partnering with local 4th generation logging company J&C Enterprises who will run the mill.

With tens of thousands of trees burned around our valley, what better way to use them than to rebuild the town of Greenville? We're excited to announce that thanks to @CAsWatershed funding, we have purchased a sawmill to be located at our Crescent Mills site.

Today on Short-term Recall, @KLBPFM’s limited-series on CA’s upcoming gubernatorial #recallelection : I’ll be talking to Dr. Jonathan Kusel @SierraInst about wildfires in CA. I ask about Newsom’s track record and Republicans’ calls for logging deregulation. We’re on in 30!

This Dixie Fire is making sure to find its way to any green forest we have left in the northern Sierra. Impacts of this fire on communities, forests, watersheds, forestry workforce, wood processing capacity, and beyond will largely re-define our work moving forward.

It has been a challenging, saddening, and stressful month for us amidst the Dixie Fire. We've lost communities of Greenville, Indian Falls, and many more structures around our beautiful Indian Valley. Many of our staff members and community partners have lost their homes. (1/2)

Lorraine is from Taylorsville – a town impacted by the Dixie Fire. Her love for cooking & her community led her to open Hanson’s Homemade Pies, and when the fire hit, she began cooking for neighbors. Now, WCK is supporting her & Taylorsville by bringing lunch & dinner each day.
