Our parent company - J.D. Irving, Limited, is a responsible steward of the forests. Each year, its forest operations harvest less than 2 percent of the forest it manages, ensuring that the company grows more wood than it harvests. J.D. Irving has planted more than 1 billion trees since 1957, and the J.D. Irving Forest Supply Chain has been declared carbon neutral.
