Revitalizing Communities & Forests
From Local Logs to Lasting Legacies.
Hat Creek Lumber is cultivating resilience: with forest care and community development.
Our forests and communities are facing growing challenges
• Wildfires threaten human & forest health.
• Community-scale sawmills have been lost in the region over the past four decades.
• There are fewer employment & community development opportunities.
• Investment for wood processing facilities is extremely difficult.
• Increased treatment volume is mismatched to existing wood processing capacity.
But within our community rose the ingenuity, experience, and creativity to devise a solution.
Hat Creek Lumber was founded in response to the growing wildfire risk and decline of local sawmills over the past four decades. The company seeks to revitalize forest health and community development through sustainable wood processing solutions.
“Hat Creek Lumber’s approach to wood and community is critical to rebuilding regional resilience.”
– Sharmie Stevenson Fall River and Pit RCDs
“Local forests need long-term, sustainable, and innovative solutions to wood processing.”
– Kevin Zeman, Stewardship West
In collaboration with local stakeholders and strategic partners, Hat Creek Lumber, LLC harnesses collective expertise and resources, ensuring our operations are both sustainable and beneficial to the community.
