Every day, Evergreen’s work reaches thousands — and a significant number of our readers open every single issue.
Yet fewer than seventy {70} readers contribute to Evergreen.
Contributions are the only the way Evergreen’s stories can remain open, independent, and accessible to the public.
Our contributors are the reason science-based forestry information continues to reach classrooms, communities, policymakers, and the very people whose livelihoods depend on healthy, working forests.
If subscriptions and contributions reflected our readership, we could easily do more — more projects, more outreach, more in-depth communication strategies, more public education, more collaborations.
The list is endless.
Yes — Evergreen is a labor of love and passion.
But Evergreen cannot survive on that alone.
Jim Petersen is Evergreen.
There is no staff. Just Jim and me.
Our office is part of our home.
Aside from a handful of dedicated board members, we do the work.
We are an unbiased, independent non-profit.
We take no funding from special interest groups.
We have always been committed to minimal overhead and an advertisement-free website, with very few articles behind a paywall.
There is no other platform that can deliver what Evergreen does.
Evergreen is the trusted independent communication platform for clear, science-based forestry information. We translate science, policy, and on-the-ground experience into clear, accurate information.
Now is the time to take part in helping sustain Evergreen.
Our work is vetted, credible, and grounded in decades of relationships with experts who know the history and current state of the land, the industry, and the science behind all three.
Our clarity is the product of forty years spent listening to scientists, land managers, tribal leaders, and the industry professionals who work in these forests every day.
Our work is vetted.
Our relationships are decades deep.
And for forty years, Evergreen has been the steady, unbiased, independent voice readers rely on.
If you believe in our mission — if you depend on Evergreen for perspective, for understanding, for unbiased truth — now is the time to help sustain it.
