As we mark National Forest Week, let’s take a moment to appreciate the forests of Alberta and how they shape our lives!

Alberta’s forests are more than just beautiful landscapes—they’re vital to our economy, culture, and environment. From the lumber and pulp industries to innovative bio-based materials, our forests contribute significantly to Canada’s prosperity and provide jobs for thousands.

In recent years, wildfires have reminded us of the importance of responsible forest management. By caring for our forests, we not only protect our communities but also preserve the stunning natural landscapes around us.

This week is a wonderful opportunity to recognize and celebrate how forests enrich our lives. They are places for adventure, reflection, and cultural connection. It's up to us to keep this legacy alive for future generations!

Let’s embrace the spirit of National Forest Week by getting outdoors, exploring the beauty of nature, and learning about Alberta’s important forest heritage. Together, we can honor the forests that define our identity and support our prosperity!
