This post draws attention to a innovative, but struggling initiative to make the Sierra Nevada foothill forest lands sustainable. It is called the Calaveras Healthy Impact Products Solutions (CHIPS). CHIPS, in its first stages of developing local business solutions, accesses and utilizes small diameter wood and underbrush from private and public lands to create a chipped product for landscape mulch. Subsequent phases
anticipate manufacture of wood pellets, posts and poles, pressed logs, craftsman woodworking products, and energy generation.
