Local activists in nearby communities are doing everything they can to hold off the company from logging nearby endangered forests until the lands can be purchased for protection. They need your help! The Ancient Forest Alliance has recently been touring and photographing these endangered areas to help bolster their campaigns. See the beautiful photo galleries below, learn what makes each area special, and find out who to link up with to help protect them!

Come to the forum on the fate of the forest lands within the Juan de Fuca region and Capital Regional District, "Our Forests, Our Future". The AFA's Ken Wu speaks about the need for a provincial park acquisition fund (similar to those of many regional districts) to buy private lands for protection on a much larger scale.
