Shelterbelt & Ecobuffer Project

Services: Extension, Management, Wildlife

The Shelterbelt & Ecobuffer project supports landowners through developing skills to sustainably manage vegetated lands and enhancing greenhouse gas management knowledge.

 

The goal of this project were to increase landowners’ capacity for sustainable management of vegetated lands which will result in enhanced biodiversity and carbon capture. Through interactive discussions and the delivery of hands-on skill development, these workshops provided knowledge that will lead to more habitat for birds, insects, and wildlife, improved biodiversity and an enhancement in overall value of the property.

This educational program was funded through the Canadian Agricultural Partnership (CAP) until February 2022.

Current shelterbelt and ecobuffer projects and extension work are eligible for funding under the 2 Billion Trees Western Coalition grant program. Click Here to let us know more about your project. All enquiries welcome!
