2009 Appalachian Festival Poster

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.
