The award recognizes initiatives that are improving economic opportunities and the quality of life in Southern regions.

NC Woody Biomass is a research-based, educational initiative that promotes economic opportunities related to renewable energy derived from woody biomass. This multifaceted program has reached more than 1,000 landowners, resource professionals, and utilities specialists since 2008, and won praise earlier this year from the NC Assn. of Cooperative Extension for its educational component.
