Prince George Woodlot Association Thinning Manual

Project Title: PG Woodlot Association Thinning Manual

Recipient:  Prince George Woodlot Association

Theme(s): Cariboo

Awarded Amount: $10,500

Project Period: 2025

Description: Funding will support completion and distribution of a thinning manual targeted towards Woodlot Licensees across BC, designed as a “grassroots field manual” for those without access to commercial thinning committees. The manual is unique and differs from Provincial Guidance documentation such that it provides a strategy for the field worker to identify stands for thinning (e.g. it builds skills to determine if a stand should be thinned or left to grow longer) and advice on how to choose and manage the harvesting contractor. The distribution of the manual will be under the umbrella of Woodlots BC and their website, publications, social media platforms and conference.
