Appalachian Designs and Root Cause were recently subjects of a great article in The Asheville Citizen-Times. The story details our Root Cause initative and outlines the ways in which we are aiming to raise awareness for local forest products and to bolster the local forest products market, while hopefully creating an extra income source for forest producers along the way. A big thanks to Carol Motsinger and The Asheville Citizen-Times for the coverage. Check it out here!

A grant from the USDA Forest Service and administered by Land-of-Sky Regional Council is allowing me to launch a new initiative focusing on the development and promotion of Appalachian Designs' use of local forest products. The grant will go to building a concentration yard and kiln, and marketing initiatives to expand the regional awareness of and demand for small diameter wood products.
