Buying locally farmed products helps maintain healthy food & products, and reduces carbon emissions from shipping.  Also, by supporting these local businesses, we are ensuring a sustainable use for the land without overdevelopment.
Using locally farmed wood for flooring and building products increases the sustainability of our local forests by assisting with the cost of ownership. Without an active market, these forests are often sold to development to offset the huge expense of ownership. In losing these forests, we lose the valuable landscapes that make this area so attractive. The Mass Woodlands Coop also ensures that its members have responsible forest management plans to help keep Western Mass an environmentally attractive and critical area.
