At the annual Redwood Region Logging Conference, you’ll have the chance to explore jobs in the logging industry. Companies such as Humboldt Redwood Company, North Coast Ag Partners, the Humboldt County Farm Bureau, Green Diamond Resource Company, and others will be present to answer questions and provide details about their programs. Those interested in forestry can also find scholarships for a truck driving course through the Conference’s sponsors.
