SUMMARY:Slow Wood: Greener Building from Local Forests with Brian Donahue
DESCRIPTION:We hope you will join us for a special presentation\, “Slow Wood: Greener Building from Local Forests with Brian Donahue”! \nWhen: Monday\, July 20th\, 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm ET \nWhere: The Walden Woods Project\, Lincoln\, MA \nAbout the Presentation: \nCan we reconnect housing to sustainably-managed local and regional forests? Through the colonial period\, houses were mostly constructed and heated directly from local woodlands—Walden Woods was a notable example. During the nineteenth century the lumber industry was transformed to a national system of large-scale extraction\, with devastating consequences. \nShould it? \nSlow Wood describes how Brian and his family built a timber frame house straight from the woods on their Massachusetts farm\, utilizing “low grade” trees through “worst first” ecological forestry. Can this be replicated across rural areas\, and what does it suggest about the larger challenge of supplying homes for cities and suburbs? Join us for a historically-informed conversation about conservation and housing in modern America.
