Private Land Stewardship

Private Land Stewardship

In Canada, privately owned land includes approximately 10% of the country’s commercially productive forest. Most of this land is located in the country’s southern forest regions, where a large proportion of the forest is divided into small parcels owned by individual woodlot owners. In addition to providing economic benefits, these woodlots provide wildlife habitat, spiritual values and recreational opportunities. They also contribute to the maintenance of biodiversity and the supply of clean water to nearby communities. To find out more about the many challenges and opportunities that exist in the private woodlot sector, please visit the links featured below.
