When you step beneath the canopy of a redwood forest, something shifts. The air feels ancient and alive. These towering trees (some thousands of years old) remind us that growth takes time.
We’re proud to support Save the Redwoods League, a nonprofit dedicated to protecting and restoring California’s redwood forests for over a century. Together, we’re helping nurture ecosystems, empower people, and invest in communities that depend on the health of these forests.
A New Kind of Economy
For generations, communities in Northern California’s Humboldt and Del Norte counties relied on industries like large-scale logging. When those industries declined, so did local opportunity. But today, a new kind of economy is taking root—one that restores.
Save the Redwoods League and its partners are revitalizing California’s North Coast through large-scale forest restoration projects. Since 2019, nearly $100 million has been invested in restoration through state funding, philanthropy, and community partnerships.
In 2024 alone, these projects supported more than 200 well-paying local jobs, with over 90% of contractor hours filled by residents. That means money stays local, fueling small businesses, supporting families, and helping entire communities thrive.
This is what the League calls a restoration economy, one where people earn a living by healing the land they call home. Apprenticeship programs are already training the next generation of forest stewards, with more than 70 college students gaining hands-on experience in redwood restoration and land management.
Restoring Community and Tourism
Restoration is about more than planting trees. It’s about protecting homes, strengthening communities, and restoring balance to the natural world.
These projects reduce wildfire and flood risks, restore salmon habitats, and create conditions for native plants and wildlife to thrive again by improving forest health and reconnecting watersheds.
The ripple effects reach far beyond the forest. In 2023, more than 400,000 visitors came to Redwood National Park, spending nearly $30 million in local communities. As new trails open and restoration continues, eco-tourism will keep growing, bringing both environmental and economic benefits.
