January 19 is the deadline for applications to the USDA Forest Service’s Wood Innovations Grant Program.

The Wood Innovations Grants Program, launched in 2015, stimulates and expands wood products and wood energy markets. Relevant legislation includes the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (Public Law 115- 334) and Rural Revitalization Technologies (7 U.S. Code [USC] 6601). National focus areas include mass timber, renewable wood energy, and technological development that supports fuel reduction and sustainable forest management.
