Pacific Lumber Company

Pacific Lumber Company was a prominent timber business in California, known for sustainably harvesting lumber from its forests. Founded in 1868, it played a significant role in the timber industry and community development. The company emphasized responsible forest management to ensure long-term forest health. In the 1980s and 1990s, it faced financial difficulties amid environmental disputes, leading to bankruptcy in 2007. Its remaining assets were acquired by Mendocino Redwood Company. Today, Pacific Lumber is recognized for its history of sustainable practices and its influence on forest conservation efforts in the region.
