Mentoring Future Foresters: Hello Tuscany and Elissa

As part of the Creston Community Forest's continued goal to mentor a new generation of foresters, we would like to introduce our two summer students, Tuscany and Elissa.

Having studied at UBC's Natural Resources Conservation program, Tuscany and Elissa will spend the summer in Creston assisting with our forest development, monitoring the Douglas-fir beetle program, over seeing the maintenance of hiking trails and helping to deliver forest education to both elementary and highschool students.

Through hands-on field experience and community engagement, they will gain insight into sustainable forest management while contributing to important local projects.

They have already been part of many projects we continue to work on as part of our forest management, along with other community organizations we dedicate our support.

Welcome to the team Tuscany and Elissa!
