November has officially arrived, which means it’s time to bid farewell to another fantastic season of forest and wetland field trips! 🌲👋
Thanks to everyone who visited us in the field & to our incredible program partners for supporting experiential learning in #AlbertaForests!

Happy 25th birthday to our 2nd oldest field site, the Des Crossley Demonstration Forest! 🥳🎂🎈
What better way to celebrate than by enlisting the help of some old friends to give the site a fresh update - former Executive Director Steve McIsaac & former President Alex Drummond!

Celebrated @MackenzieCounty today at @albertaforests 82nd AGM - recognized as the 2024 Forest Capital of Canada by @CIF_IFC. I love the people from this community - 700 kms north of Edmonton and bigger than New Brunswick. They embody the values, pride, and generous spirit of Canada’s forest workers, families, and communities. 🎉

Alberta #forest companies plant more trees than they harvest, with over 100 million #coniferous trees planted each year! We have planted nearly 2 billion trees in the past two decades, ensuring our forests can be explored for generations.💚🥾#Forestry #AlbertaForestry #Sustainablity
