help Us ensure a greener future

Alberta, Canada

Mistahae Lake Fire Planting project has planted 80 thousand trees so far in 2022, and will aim to plant about half a million more trees on provincial land in the Slave Lake Forest area of Alberta. The forest is a unique and extremely remote part of Canada's territory which is over 350km from the nearest city. We’re going to grow a number of different species including white spruce, black spruce, lodgepole pine, balsam poplar, willow. The project proposes to use planting as an effective method to reforest the land and eventually return the land to a conifer dominated forest to enhance biodiversity. Our goal is to support the land's natural regeneration cycle by using no mechanical or chemical site preparation, but relying on the hands of individual planters to manually create microsites.

This project will plant a mix of white spruce, black spruce, and pine to replicate the historical forest on the property. The creation of a new coniferous dominated forest will provide key wildlife habitat for a variety of wildlife species. Seedlings grown locally will benefit a local nursery. Some of the tree planters live close to the property and their income will continue to support the local community.

This project will plant tree seedlings to reforest previously forested lands that were severely impacted by the 2017 Plateau Fire near Nazko, British Columbia (BC). The sites in this project have been surveyed and were found to have little to no natural regeneration coming in after the wildfire. When there is natural regeneration in this part of BC, it is mostly lodgepole pine and trembling aspen due to their respective adaptations for regenerating after a wildfire. By planting we are able to increase the species diversity by including native species that are not so well adapted to coming back after a wildfire such as hybrid spruce and Douglas-fir.

Yunesit’in Government is an indigenous Tsilhqot’in community located 114 km west of Williams Lake on the Chilcotin Plateau. Yunesit'in wishes to create a sustainable landscape that includes fuel mitigation to reduce impact of future wildfires, as well as rehabilitation of forests that will otherwise have very slow recovery to healthy stand conditions following the initial mountain pine beetle infestation.
