Why forestry matters
Forestry plays an important role in building sustainable communities — from creating materials that replace carbon-intensive products to supporting jobs across Nova Scotia.
Nova Scotia’s forestry sector also contributes to long-term environmental solutions, with millions of trees planted each year and products that store carbon over time.
A strong forestry sector starts with connection.
