๐Ÿ”Whatโ€™s in your forest products?

Letโ€™s learn more about wood fibers and bamboo in North Carolina! From packing and paper to furniture and building materials, both bamboo and wood fiber are used to make products we rely on daily. In North Carolina, wood fibers come from sustainably managed working forests that are carefully grown, harvested, and replanted. These forests support your local jobs, economies, wildlife habitats, and clean water across the state. Bamboo is often used as a fiber alternative, but in North Carolina it is considered an invasive species outside of managed areas and can spread quickly in natural environments. Fun Fact: NC forests are sustainably managed and grow more timber each year than harvested. Want to learn more? https://tinyurl.com/ye9xx3p4 #ForestryFactFriday
