Hampton Lumber

Hampton Lumber and the Hampton family were profiled in the Portland Business Journal this week! The legacy of the family continues to inspire, with Jamey Hampton acknowledging his father's influence in every aspect of the business.

As wildfires post a growing threat to communities and the environment, sustainable forest management remains a critical tool in mitigating risk and protecting lives. When wildfires occur, foresters and logging operators often work side-by-side with emergency responders to fight fires on both private and public lands. #wildfiremitigation #FireResilience #SustainableForestry #HamptonLumber

You might be familiar with the life cycle of a typical PNW working forest, but what about a Hampton forest? On our timberlands, we're growing sustainable building materials but we're also sowing wildflowers for pollinators, hosting dance performances in the woods, offering public access, and supplying the Portland Timbers with epic Victory logs...and we do it all with a [very large] smile! 😉

Exiting news! We're partnering with the Portland Urban Wood Network to repurpose old, Hampton-grown Victory Logs from the Portland Timbers! We're all about getting the most out of every log we harvest so we're thrilled to work with the UWN to ensure these logs continue to benefit our community in new and exciting ways! Stay tuned for updates on our progress and products!

In June, we celebrate Pollinator Month! Our pioneering timberland pollinator project began on Oregon's North Coast in 2017. This year, we're extending the initiative to our properties in the Willamette Valley and the North Cascades of Washington State!

Our Hampton Lumber Millwright team was back in action at the Grand Sheramina Food Bank this week, replacing the last old damaged window at the back of the building. We're always happy to help this wonderful organization! #communitysupport #volunteering #foodbank

It's Juneteenth, a day we reflect and honor the people who fought for a better tomorrow while recommitting ourselves to justice, equality, and inclusion! ❤️ 💛 💚 #Juneteenth

We want to congratulate Hampton's Amanda McDaniel (Planer Supervisor-Randle), James Makowichuk (Sawmill Supervisor-Babine), Ryan Belcourt (Sawmill Supervisor-Babine), and Lorne Hallgren (Supervisor-Babine), all recent recipients of a Business of Sawmilling Associate Certificate from the British Columbia Institute of Technology! We're proud of you!

Unmanaged forests in the PNW are dying and burning at an alarming rate. Researchers emphasize the importance of human intervention in restoring forest equilibrium on federal lands. #ForestManagement #ForestHealth #Climate
