“These timberlands are located in favorable markets and well-integrated with our existing supply chain, and we have strong relationships with a diverse and reliable set of customers in the area,” says Devin Stockfish, President and CEO.

Weyerhaeuser owns or manages nearly 600,000 acres and operates two mills and a nursery in Alabama.
