In visit to Somerset County, the Governor also visits Go Lab, Inc for an update on innovative work to establish the first wood fiber insulation production facility in North America
SOMERSET COUNTY – Governor Janet Mills today celebrated the grand opening of The Good Crust in Canaan. Founded by Heather Kerner, The Good Crust produces artisan, handmade, frozen dough from 100 percent Maine grains that can be featured as locally-sourced pizza crust, farmstead focaccia breads, and bialys.
GO Lab is retrofitting a former paper mill in Madison to process low-quality byproducts of the state's lumber industry softwood sawmill chips and timber-harvest detritus that right now are hard to sell. They'll turn it into wood-fiber insulation, called Timber HP. Some 230 million tons worth a year.
