Truly sustainable management of Nova Scotia's native Acadian Forest requires some thought. Forest conditions, markets, tax planning and many other factors influence which activities should be considered in any stand of trees. Even before those considerations, owners need to understand and be able to clearly state their personal goals for forest ownership.
This short series of questions serves two purposes: To help you think about what you want to happen in your woodlands, and to tell us what resources you need to achieve your goals. Depending on your responses, it will take 5-15 minutes to complete. This unique tool was created by the Nova Scotia Woodlot Owners and Operators Association (NSWOOA) with financial support from the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources. NSWOOA is a non-profit association of woodlot owners and operators achieving prosperity, stewardship, and solidarity through the practice of ecologically, socially, and economically sustainable forestry. We do not offer forest management or harvesting services; our interest is only in the protection and enhancement of the forest ecosystems of Nova Scotia. NSWOOA is committed to being the best source of information for forest landowners in Nova Scotia. If you have questions about your woodlands, call us toll-free at 1-855-NS-WOODS (1-855-679-6637) or visit the Acadian Forest Management section of our website at nswooa.ca. By using this tool, you give permission to NSWOOA to review your responses and contact you to provide additional resources (if appropriate). We take your privacy very seriously. We will not share your personal information with any other individual or organization unless you request that we do so. |
