October is Fire Prevention Month - a time to remember that protecting our homes and forests starts with small, safe choices.

Whether it’s clearing brush, checking campfires, or following burn bans, we all play a part in keeping our forests and communities safe.

Together, we can protect the places we love! 🌍🌲

One of the most unique neighbors in our East Texas forests is the Nine-Banded Armadillo. With its tough armor shell and quirky digging habits, this little mammal is built for survival!

Armadillos play a surprising role in our ecosystem - they help control insect populations by digging for beetles, ants, and grubs. If you’ve spotted those cone-shaped holes in the soil, chances are an armadillo was on the night shift. 🌙

Though shy and mostly nocturnal, they’re an unforgettable part of life in the Texas woods.

As autumn settles across East Texas, one night this October will stand out above the rest: on October 6, the full Hunter’s Moon rises - and it's no ordinary lunar show!

This year, October’s full moon is both the Harvest Moon AND a supermoon, meaning it appears larger and brighter than usual.

Have you ever strolled under a forest canopy lit by moonlight? If not, this October might be your perfect chance. 🌕

Looking to feed the pollinators this month? 🌻 Choosing native flowers is a simple way to support our local butterflies, bees - and the unique biodiversity of our East Texas forests.

A few favorites to plant in September: winecup, coneflower, and Gregg’s mistflower. These blooms not only provide food for pollinators but also help preserve the natural balance of our ecosystems for generations to come! 😊🌱

Butterflies need fall food, too! These East Texas favorites - Frostweed, Shrubby Boneset, Goldenrod, Texas Lantana, and Zinnias - are essential nectar stops. 🦋✨

If you’ve spent time in our beautiful woods, chances are you’ve crossed paths with this long, lean neighbor - sometimes stretching up to 6 feet! 😲

While their size may seem intimidating, Texas Rat Snakes are actually helpful allies. They play a big role in keeping rodent populations in check - both in the forest and around your home.

So next time you spot one slithering by, remember: they’re not just part of the local wildlife, they’re part of the natural pest patrol team. 🐍

New $100 Million Lumber Facility Set to Open in Angelina County

LUFKIN, TX, May 4, 2018 – Angelina Forest Products, LLC announced plans to build a new softwood lumber production plant in Lufkin, Texas. The company purchased the former General Electric Buck Creek site and will begin construction of a $100 million state-of-the-art sawmill this summer with plans to be operational in the second quarter of 2019.

During construction, the project will employ hundreds of workers in Angelina County. When completed, Angelina Forest Products expects to provide careers for more than 100 full-time employees. “This is great news for Angelina County and the surrounding counties. Our regional economy is still heavily dependent on a healthy wood and forest products industry, and this project will certainly have a significant positive impact on the area,” stated State Representative Trent Ashby.

The newly formed leadership team at Angelina Forest Products has more than 100 years of experience in the building products business. Executive Vice President Stephen Raley says the company is proud to locate the mill in Angelina County, where there is a talented work force familiar with the industry. “Lufkin is the best location for the new world-class sawmill. The team is eager to continue the tradition of producing high quality building materials while providing the high quality, career-oriented jobs that are so important to the families in our community,” said Raley.

“We are so excited that 3rd and 4th generations of Lufkin are joining together to create jobs for Angelina County,” said City of Lufkin Mayor Bob Brown. “A sawmill creates jobs not only at the sawmill, but in the forest, in transportation and beyond. Our economy should see a positive change and we look forward to working together to help make this a success story.”

"The City of Lufkin supports the Angelina Forest Products sawmill and their commitment to creating quality jobs and also providing future generations of workers a long-term employment option in Angelina County. This is great news for East Texas, Angelina County and Lufkin," said Bob Samford, Lufkin Economic Development Director.

The sawmill will produce a full product line of Southern Yellow Pine lumber and will be capable of producing in excess of 220 million board feet annually. The mill expects to receive 600 log trucks a week from timber owners within a 100-mile radius and will ship 200 trucks of finished product per week throughout this area and other parts of the United States.

“It’s the right time for the lumber industry and it’s the right time for Angelina County. The demand for lumber continues to improve while housing demand and remodeling markets are on the rise and the new plant site provides ample space for future growth,” says Raley.

“Angelina Forest Products is an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, s*x, national origin, s*xual orientation, gender identity, disability or protected veteran status.”
