Today on the actual sauna bench, we are joined and talk with Jake Newport from Finnmark. Jake makes the journey from Northern England to join me on the Larsmont Cottages sauna bench in Northern Minnesota, by the cold, clear clean water shores of Lake Superior. You can also check out my podcast with Jake and Brother Max from 2020 here. During this episode, we learn more from Jake about the thermal bathing ecosystem in the UK and globally. From career path change to multi pronged sauna business. Investing and reinvesting in the culture and the company. Super early bird grounding Fully grounded by being the first guests to Sauna Days. We enjoy solitary quiet time to ground ourselves through the hot and the cold. Mika & Wendy – lifetime achievement awards for sauna. BSS founding. The explosion of sauna in Great Britain. Huge number getting into the thermal bathing scene. Beautiful saunas on beautiful beach. Beach Box Brighton. A meaningful thermal experience Three things that give us the feeling of community: a the church, the pub, and the village green society. Britain has become more secular. People now are far more health conscious. A void around community, and a sense of community. A gap waiting to be filled. A huge spectrum of age. Mikkel Aaland, and the “lost bathing culture” and the return of uptick of thermal bathing. Larsmont Cottages sauna talk Jake describes the sauna in which we are sitting. How the sauna is Finnish style. He calls out the Western Red Cedar, and full wooden door. Jake describes the Kuuma stove: “This is a heater that you buy once.” Final words: It's the hot, then the cold, then the normalization. lying outside on the cold wet grass, Jake found himself unwound and relaxed.

Ted speaks with Chris Bouchard at BPWood in Penticton, British Columbia.  BPwood is a family run lumber company that specializes in being Nimble Innovators. Today Ted unravels the greenwashing of composite materials vs. new wood products. While most consumers and builders are looking for durable outdoor materials like red cedar, BPWood has been revolutionizing the global lumber supply chain by introducing a new product called ThermoWood. This thermally modified wood is more sustainable and cheaper than other alternatives and today you'll hear where it comes from, how it's made, and all the different ways it can be used to change the industry.TOPICS DISCUSSED[2:12] How extreme sports translates to the family business[6:28] Why did you join the family business?[9:00] What's the difference between regional woods?[10:45] Hardwood vs. softwoods and sustainability[14:45] Thermally Modified Wood: what is it and how is it made?[18:50] Reclaimed lumber and its durability[21:20] What's your biggest challenge? Education?[24:20]What's the application of it?[28:10] Thermowood is great for harsh climates[29:00] What makes BPWood stand out from the competition?[30:45] Do woods cycle, not just in popularity but in supply?[33:25] The stories wood can tell[34:30] BPWood products[37:00]  What changes have been made in the company over the years?[40:05] Where do you see BPWood 5 years from now?[40:55] What markets do you excel in?[42:42] What's the price point?[43:45] Is there pressure on the composite industry?[47:05] Current projectsCONNECT WITH GUESTChris BouchardWebsiteInstagramFacebookLinkedInKEY QUOTES FROM EPISODEThermo Wood is a, well the thermal modification of wood is a process that has been studied in Europe from the early 1900s and the whole idea is to use heat and water to take a piece of traditionally non-durable wood and make it durable. Europeans don't grow, they don't have Western Red Cedar. Western Red Cedar is naturally known as the most naturally resistant or durable wood for exterior cladding and fencing and railing and decking and things like that. So the Europeans had to come up with a solution to take the material that they can grow in their forests and make durable wood products.I think the vision for the company is to get a little bit deeper into markets that we've historically done good business in. We built the company on being a very wide company, and that's got us a long way. We understand the world. We know how things move around the world. We have a very global understanding of softwood. And my focus for the company is to see us dig a little deeper into those individual lanes. And just increase business that way. I believe you can only be so good at a lot of things and you can become masters at a few things that will make you stickier in the marketplace.The broader message for all of these home building groups is that wood is good. Wood has a better carbon footprint and a more sustainable story than any hardy board ever created, than any composite deck ever created. We need to reintroduce wood as being good. That's my message to the whole industry, not just the high end home guys.

My class of grade 1 and 2 learners have continued our routine of being outdoors every day, ranging from 30 minutes up to almost 2 hours.  The last few weeks we have been noticing how many different types of trees we have on our school grounds - too many to choose from! Listen to today's episode for how we began learning about the western red cedar and how we will continue to use that knowledge to compare and contrast with the other trees that live near us - like the massive Douglas Fir! A big thank you to all of those who are sharing your outdoor learning journey with us on social media by tagging @mentoringnatureconnections on IG.

Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - According to BC Parks, Campbell River is home to “the only significant stand of old-growth Douglas Fir north of Macmillan Provincial Park [Cathedral Grove].” Yet the city seems to be virtually oblivious to the “towering old growth Douglas Fir and Cedar trees” in the 3.5 kilometre Riverside and Old Growth Loop trails. While only minutes from downtown, the Riverside and Old Growth Loop Trails are not listed in the ‘Top 10 things to do within one hour of Campbell River.' A single sentence is devoted to the forest giants in the Best Trails in Elk Falls Provincial Park: “The old-growth forests in the area are comprised of giant Western Red Cedar and Douglas Fir trees, with many in excess of 60 meters [197 feet] tall and hundreds of years old.” They scattered throughout this section of the forest. Elk Falls Provincial Park was created in 1940, ‘to protect rare old growth forests and related ecosystems, as well as the Elk Falls waterfall and the related canyon.' A large number of the trees along the Riverside and Old Growth Loop Trails are more than 330 years old. Many appear to be much older. There are five trails in Elk Falls Provincial Park: A 0.4 km path takes visitors from the park entrance to the Millennium trail. The Millennium Trail, connecting the Canyon View Trail (and John Hart Generating Station) to the network of trails around Elk Falls. A 0.2 km path to Elk Falls. The Riverside Loop Trail runs along the bank of the Campbell River. Visitors pass through large stands of old growth, as they pass Elk Falls, Deer Falls, the Dolphin Pool and Moose Falls. The Old Growth Loop Trail takes you through even thicker concentrations of old growth All of these paths are easy walking, but the Canyon View and Elk Falls Trails have extensive stairways. There are some old growth trees in both the Canyon View and Millennial Trails, but they are not as numerous or as large as those above the falls. Walking amidst these giants, one can imagine what the West Coast forests looked like before the age of industrialized logging.

I'm cleaning out some of my inbox this time and answering a question about the difference between green and air dried timbers. Talking about the checking inherent in larger timbers, and planting your own grove of trees. Plus I delve into the possible replacements for Western Red Cedar.

You can't live on Vancouver Island and not spend a little time talking about trees. They're everywhere and they're beautiful. But do you know the difference between a Douglas Fir and a Sitka Spruce? If you were looking at a Western Hemlock and a Western Red Cedar could you tell them apart? In this episode, we've compiled a couple of arborists to discuss 20 of our favourite trees on Vancouver Island.

We are discussing one of the most important trees of the Pacific Northwest: Western Red Cedar. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jayne-simmons/support

Today’s episode is brought to you by the NorthWest Herb Symposium. I had the pleasure of attending this wonderful event a few years ago and I gotta say it’s top notch. The location alone is worth the trip. It’s located at the Camp Casey Conference Center in beautiful Coupeville Washington.  Next year’s event, titled “Botanicals at the Beach” will be from August 23 – 26 2018. For more information you can head to NWHerbSymposium.com. Also, you can purchase recordings from last year’s event, as well as many other events from the symposium’s organizer’s website: www.treefarmtapes.com This was recorded at the 2017 NorthWest Herb Symposium. It’s with none other than herbalist Natasha Clarke. CLASS DESCRIPTION: Tree medicine is an oft overlooked resource here in the Pacific Northwest but it was only 60 years ago that harvesting bark from the Cascara trees was a job that folks still remember doing to make some extra money. From the mighty Western Red Cedar and Black Cottonwood to the “weedy’ Red Alder, Cascara and the lesser known Dogwood and Madrona, the trees in this bio region offer a pillar of support for many ailments. As a practicing herbalist focused on using local herbs, tree medicine compromises about 40% of the medicine I use.    Of the trees that lend their medicine well on this land are Western Red Cedar, Red Alder, Black Cottonwood, Pacific Northwest Dogwood, Cascara, Hawthorn and Willow, and Wild Cherry to name just a few.    Trees have a long physical history with man and an even longer relationship. We have been bough in arms with these silent sentient beings and I find that the medicine is rooted in this relationship. It leads to a reaching down and anchoring of ourselves in land, an understanding of where we are to grow from on our healing paths with this land that is our home, whether we are new to place or here all our lives.    The tree’s that I will be discussing are all trees that I use regularly in my practice and we will be talking about their medicine while we make the medicine.    Natasha Clarke is a practicing herbalist on Camano Island, WA. She is an herbal educator and creator of the Herb Hunter on KSER. To find out more go to: www.InnerEarthHealing.com
