Biomass & Beyond: The Future of Our Forests and Working Lands

The Capital Region is home to large quantities of woody biomass in our forests and agricultural waste from our farmlands. We need actionable solutions to manage this material. Unmanaged woody biomass and agricultural waste contributes to catastrophic wildfires, which endangers frontline communities and impacts regional air quality, the natural environment, and local infrastructure.

Join Valley Vision for a regional event to propel solutions to this crisis, with an emphasis on the opportunities around biomass utilization in our forests and working lands. This event, hosted in collaboration with the Cleaner Air Partnership, Capital Region Climate Readiness Collaborative, and the Los Rios Community College District, will establish a shared understanding of biomass utilization, explore the future of forest management and agricultural careers in our region, and mobilize leaders and decision-makers for action.

RSVP today to join the conversation on November 20th! Registration is for food and event planning purposes.

For inquiries and additional requests for accommodations, please email Kathy Saechou at [email protected] by end of day November 6th, 2024.
