Our Beerburrum Community Open Day on Saturday 19 July was a great success, drawing over 450 visitors under sunny skies.

Guests discovered how HQP manages Queensland’s largest sustainable timber plantations—harvesting enough timber for over 25,000 house frames annually, while replanting to ensure long-term forest health and environmental protection.

Feedback from visitors on the day expressed how friendly and passionate staff from both HQP and its contractors were and how the event showcased forest management techniques that protect land, water, wildlife, and communities. Visitors were shown the vital role the timber industry plays in Queensland’s economy, supporting thousands of jobs—from harvesters and truck drivers to sawmill workers, scientists and firefighters. Visitors advised they were impressed, inspired, and gained a deeper appreciation for HQP and its role in sustainable forestry and the Queenland economy and said they were looking forward to the next Open Day!
