The Tip is 'Ask manufacturers' Some times I have run across an advertisement that implied a product was Made in USA but the product did not have the Made in USA label. Before I buy or put the product on my Made in USA list, I email the manufacturer and ask if their product is Made in USA. If they say yes I ask why their product is not labeled that way. Seldom will they tell me why but many times they will tell me every component that is Made in the USA and those that are not. I then make my decision about buying their product and put it on my list if they convince me.

With approximately 1.4 million acres certified to FSC? standards, we grow trees, sell timber, and manufacture solid wood products. Since 1903, we have sought the common ground that enables us to unlock the value of our lands while conserving our forests for generations to come. How do you derive commercial value from a forest while ensuring its long-term sustainability? We've led the way in answering that question since 1903?as a landowner, as a grower and harvester of trees, and as a manufacturer of forest products. Today, as a Real Estate Investment Trust, or REIT, we own approximately 1.42 million acres of forestland in Arkansas, Idaho, and Minnesota. Every acre that we use for silviculture is certified under the rigorous standards of the Forest Stewardship Council, and every acre is managed for maximum value. Through its taxable REIT subsidiary, the company also operates six manufacturing facilities that produce lumber and panel products. The company, which employs approximately 1,000 people, also conducts a real estate sales and development business through its taxable REIT subsidiary. Potlatch, a verified forest practices leader, is committed to providing superior returns to stockholders through long-term stewardship of its resources. |
