?????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ??????????????????! Last night, Idaho Forest Group (IFG) had the honor of recognizing some of the incredible individuals whose hard work and dedication made the Prichard Creek Conservation Agreement a reality.

Idaho Forest Group appreciates the support of Idaho Governor, Brad Little, who stated yesterday “Idaho is home to over 20 million acres of forest land that act as a huge driver of Idaho’s economy. This #nationalforestproductsweek I want to thank all our forest products businesses for their hard work & commitment to maintaining healthy forests here in Idaho!” We'd also like to thank the Governor-appointed commission members of the Idaho Forest Products Commission who reflect the milling, logging, transportation, and timber-managing segments of our industry and help ensure balanced and sustained timber, wildlife, recreation and scenic beauty for the welfare of our state’s citizens. #IdahoForestGroup #IFPC #AWC
