About Us

Canadian Women in Timber began in 1989 and is truly a grassroots organization. Board members are all volunteers and are committed to making a positive difference. Most members have a connection to the forest industry and are the first to experience the social and economic consequences of forest land use.

Who are we?

Canadian Women in Timber is a registered Canadian charity. We support educational activities that enhance the public’s understanding of BC’s forest resources and sustainable management. Our aim is to foster an interest and a passion for the natural science of forestry; management and operations/harvesting.

Since our inception in 1989, we have provided the public with a balanced view of forest land use issues. We work with allies and partners, such as industry associations, forest and wood companies and educational institutions.

Branches

We are composed of our main provincial board of directors, and regional branches throughoutthe province. Currently there are brances in the Shuswap and on Vancouver Island.
