Sustainable Forest Management on Crown lands in Western Nova Scotia

WestFor Management Inc. (WestFor) provides expertise in sustainable forest management and administrative support in the planning and implementation of ecological forestry on Crown Lands in Western Nova Scotia.

We strive to protect and enhance forest ecosystems which we believe are the foundation on which the environmental, social, and economic values associated with Crown lands are dependent upon.  

OUR VALUES

Environmental

Forestry operations are planned and implemented through a process that maintains the natural diversity of forest ecosystems and protects soil productivity, wetlands, watercourses, species at risk and sensitive habitat features.

Social

WestFor recognizes the importance of contributing to local communities and accommodating public use of Crown lands for recreation and other activities while ensuring the safety of everyone in and around our active operations.

Economic

Implementing ecosystem-based management on Crown land contributes significantly to the economy of rural Nova Scotia by providing year-round employment for contractors and raw materials for wood processing facilities in our local communities.
