We’re excited to announce that we’ve been awarded $1 million in grant funding from the Forest Enhancement Society of BC (FESBC)! This funding, which supports our efforts from 2025 to 2027, will play a vital role in reducing wildfire risk in and around the community of Creston in the Creston Community Forest. This funding is part of the $90 million allocated in 2025 for wildfire-prevention initiatives through BC Wildfire Service, FireSmart initiatives and FESBC.
The grant will fund fuel management treatments and planning for future initiatives, including prescribed burning. We’re grateful for FESBC’s continued support and remain committed to innovation and leadership in sustainable forest management.
Stay tuned for more updates and exciting projects on the horizon!
