Boreal Forest Habitat Restauration

Boreal Forest Habitat Restauration, Kanada

We are restoring Manitoba's Boreal Forests by planting native trees in collaboration with local Indigenous communities. These forests, damaged by pest infestations and wildfires, need proper management to recover and withstand future threats. By planting native species and ensuring forest maintenance, we can guarantee their long-term resilience and restoration.
