They bring life to this world in a way nothing else can. As our greatest natural resource, forests provide us with clean air and water, and a home for our province's wildlife.

Project Forest is a non-profit organization, committed to rewilding Canada's local landscape by working with like-minded businesses who want to help build forests in Canada. Together, we can improve our environment, improve peoples lives and create healthier communities for today, tomorrow and generations to come.

Made up of a team of passionate changemakers, we are creating a community of companies working together to build forests where we can enjoy them most - close to home.

Each new forest improves the air and water, supports animal habitat and creates natural playgrounds. By partnering with businesses to fund new forest creation, we're bringing people one step closer to a better place to live, work and explore.
