Green Hammer (SCS-COC-002044) recently completed development of an FSC certified home in Ashland, OR. Set in the stunning hills of Southern Oregon, the Roberts House is on track to become triple certified: LEED Platinum, Passive House, and FSC certified.  

With 100% of the framing from FSC-certified sources within 300 miles of the project, the home is also a model for low embodied energy and local economic development. By seeking FSC certification, the project is educating the market and driving demand for homes that are built with wood entirely from responsibly managed forests.
