Supporting value-added forestry is important, and complex. Community forests work hard to balance fibre supply, local benefits, and economic realities.
The BCCFA is committed to local control, stewardship, and rural opportunity. Community forests are part of BCโ€™s future and weโ€™re ready to build it.
