Multiply Your Impact: Leveraging Partner and Volunteer Efforts

Walking the trail around TLC’s Second Lake property in the District of Highlands, it doesn’t take long before you come to understand why the 73 hectares (183 acres) found within the at-risk Coastal Douglas-fir biogeoclimatic zone was protected back in 2005. The site includes a valley-bottom lake and adjoining wetland, rocky moss-covered outcroppings, [...]

As development in her neighbourhood is fragmenting local habitat, she reached out to learn how she could protect the land that she has called home for the last 20 years. With minimal alterations, the site [...]

New Covenant Protects Sandy Beach Nature Reserve

Walking through the serene forest on an old trail, you suddenly burst out of the dimly lit verdant landscape into a bright ocean scene. Clambering over layers of driftwood piled up at the beach edge, you make your way to the sandy surf and smile knowing this small but important piece of nature is protected [...]

This fall the west coast has been experiencing unseasonably warm and dry weather with record breaking temperatures and dramatic drought. Smoke filled skies remained late into October causing poor air quality well beyond the devastated communities impacted by B.C.’s raging wildfires.
