Founder and Executive Director Marco Bey and Tribal Partnerships Director Belinda Brown discuss Collaborative Forest Restoration: A Win-Win for People and Nature. This free event will take place on July 15, from 6:30 – 8:00 pm at Carpenter Hall, 44 S. Pioneer, Ashland.

In the face of climate change and the new reality of wildfire in the West, collaborative, community-based forest restoration is a proven solution to help protect communities and natural resources. Lomakatsi will share their model for leveraging federal and state agreements with local partnerships to build long-term, landscape-scale forest and watershed stewardship projects. These agreements can bring millions of federal dollars to help create fire-adapted ecosystems and communities, while supporting sustainable jobs and local economies. This hands-on stewardship approach enhances wildlife habitat and helps prepare the landscape for beneficial fire.
