ALT Eden woodchip mill - NSW, Australia. Eden is the only region in New South Wales where native forests are felled solely for woodchipping. Eden was Australia’s first woodchip mill, set up in 1969 by the Daishowa Paper Manufacturing Company of Japan and was the first overseas operation of that company. Woodchip exports commenced in December 1970. Nippon Paper purchased the mill in 2000 during peak years when the wood chip mill's annual exports exceeded 1 million tonnes GMT. Since 2015 the Eden woodchip mill is owned and operated by Allied Natural Wood Enterprises Pty Ltd (ANWE) a subsidiary of the Pentarch Group. http://anwe.com.au/ In 2021-22 the Eden wood chip mill exported over 450,000 tonnes GMT of native hardwood chips.
ALT 24 April 2023 - Day 1 - Newry state forest vigil. Newry Forest is there for wildlife, and for us, to enjoy right now - but unless we are VERY careful this ancient forest could be logged and changed forever soon. The time is NOW to support Nature. Please bring a chair - and something you need - to do something you love - in Newry State Forest eg botany books, your bike, your yoga mat, birdwatching binoculars, camping gear, a sketchbook, hiking boots…and sit-in with us for an hour or so. Contact Forest Ecology Alliance on facebook.
