The Ma Matow Sakow Healing Forest is more than rewilding. It’s reconciliation in action. Together w/ Councillor Gabrielle Blatz, Elder Ivy Raine, @AMAcommunity, and the City of Wetaskiwin, we’ve begun transforming a former landfill into a place for healing, reflection, & growth.

A safe campfire is a cold campfire. Douse, stir, douse again, and check for heat. Never walk away while a fire is still warm. Protect the forests we love this summer. 🔥🌲 #CampfireSafety #WildfirePrevention

Teamwork in action. 🌱 Last week in #YEG, our corporate partners planted trees, built connections, and left a legacy beyond the workday. These events show the power of bringing rewilding, relationships, and responsibility together. Next stop: Calgary! 🔜 #YYC

Plogging. No, we didn’t make it up. It’s jogging + picking up litter. It’s weird. It’s real. And it works. Help keep trails clean and forests thriving. Lace up. Grab a bag. Plog it out. 🏃

It’s planting season in #YEG! 🌱 Our final year at Golden Ranches is underway, with corporate teams planting trees, building connections, and leaving a legacy that will grow for generations. Follow along for highlights from the field. #ProjectForest #RewildingCanada

Our Annual Reports are almost ready 📖🌿 On August 11th, we’ll be sharing a look back at the progress we’ve made together. From project milestones to partner impact, this report helps tell the story of what’s possible when we rewild with care and intention. Stay tuned!

Today is #WorldNatureConservationDay, a reminder that nature gives us everything. At Project Forest, we honor reciprocity by restoring landscapes and working with Indigenous Nations who have cared for this land since time immemorial. Let’s protect what protects us. 🌿

What will the forests of tomorrow look like? 🌱 Project Forest, in partnership w/ @ReseauUQ, is launching Canada’s Tree Adaptation Project: 32,000+ trees, 18 species, 224 research plots. A living lab to study forest adaptation and climate resilience. ℹ️: loom.ly/cFENHC4

Summer heat stressing your seedlings? ☀️ 3 ways to help them thrive: 💧 Water early or late 🌱 Soak roots, not just the surface ⛱️ Add shade during peak sun hours Small care now = a stronger forest later.

It’s #ParksDay in Canada, a chance to celebrate our forests, ecosystems, and the spaces that connect us to the land. 🌲 At Project Forest, we believe protecting and rewilding go hand in hand. Let’s keep these wild places wild.

We recently visited the greenhouse where Project Forest trees begin their journey. Each seedling is grown with deep care by Sherri and her team, ready to return to the land and feel like Coming Home. Grateful to witness the heart behind every forest we plant. 🌱
