When
looking at the surroundings around us;
forests areas occupy a third of the United
States land. Until this century wood was
the single greatest material aid and comfort
in our ancestors lives. The average individual
uses up to 1600 pounds of wood each year
in the United States. We use timber from
feeding fires to building our homes to
writing our grocery lists. The very first
of models of a lot of devices were made
of wood first, the first airplane, and
the first submarine. Timber is an essential
element in our lives, and we need to remember
the wood we use today furnishes our lives;
whereas, the trees we plant today will
shade our future generation. Timber is
our #1 renewable resource, and The Appalachian
Festival wants to pay tribute to those
that work to preserve our forests, and
for those that will risk their lives to
bring us our homes.
