Ralph Jowett and Leonard Wood, owners of locally-based forestry and natural resource management consulting firm Jowett & Wood, Inc., donated 4,000 sq ft of heart pine flooring to the ACF Learning Center building. The heart pine logs were salvaged from a 400+/- acre wildfire that occurred in March 2011 on private property in Duval County.
