Redwoods Rising Forest Restoration | Save the Redwoods League

Here in Redwood National and State Parks, we're helping second growth redwood forest recover. A lot of the forest here was heavily logged before the parks were established. The forests that grew back, they didn't return to their natural state. These young trees are packed in too tightly... they're all fighting for sunlight and space. So through Redwoods Rising, we're using modern forestry techniques to speed up the recovery of a healthier, more natural forest ecosystem. And while it seems counterintuitive, the first big step is thinning. Here's how that works.
