Happy 2nd Anniversary, Corrigan II! 🎉Congratulations to the entire RoyOMartin team on this achievement and the impact you're making in East Texas. 🥳

Before a single board rolls off the line, it takes vision, commitment, and a team willing to build something great together.

Today, we're celebrating two years of operations at Corrigan II, our second OSB facility in Corrigan, Texas. What started as an expansion has become a major part of how we serve our customers, support our communities, and continue to build tomorrow together.

This milestone belongs to every team member who helped bring Corrigan II to life and every person who continues to make it successful each day.

Thank you for your hard work, dedication, and pride in what we build together.

Inspiring the next generation of forestry professionals! 🌲

Tim Flynt, forestry consultant at Stewardship Forestry Services and a member of TFA's Outreach and Education Committee, recently attended career day at Huntington Middle School, where he used ForestryWorks materials to introduce students to careers in forestry and natural resources.

Career awareness starts early, and opportunities like this help students discover the many pathways available in the forest products industry right here in East Texas.

Thank you, Tim, for helping connect students with forestry careers and for investing in the future of our industry!

TFA Ted travels abroad! 🌎✈️🇨🇦

Our Sustainability and Education Director recently attended the Sustainable Forestry Initiative Annual Conference in Montreal, connecting with forestry professionals from across the continent.

With SFI standards widely used across the forest products industry, the conference was a great opportunity to connect, share ideas and ensure our state has a voice in the standards guiding responsible forest management.

Today, we pause to remember and honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. 🇺🇸

Their sacrifice secured freedoms we often take for granted and their legacy lives on through the land, communities and future generations they helped protect.

This Memorial Day, we remember the fallen and extend our deepest gratitude to those who served and the families who carry their memory forward.

We hosted the Texas Forestry Association’s Leaders Emerging Across Forestry cohort yesterday at our headquarters in College Station. The group of leaders toured our newly renovated emergency operations center and received an overview of our agency departments, programs and more.

Texas A&M Forest Service and the Texas Forestry Association have been partners for over 100 years, helping lead the forest industry across the state.
