OPINION: Forests Are About More Than Trees
Posted by Aspen | May 12, 2026
Alberta Forest Week is here – one of those natural moments throughout the year where I take time to pause ...

After a long winter, spring has finally arrived. To celebrate, the AFPA and our Work Wild program will be planting seedlings in Edmonton’s MacKinnon Ravine on May 12. Planting trees does come naturally to us – our members planted 80 million seedlings in Alberta’s forests in 2018. If you are in Edmonton that day, please join us to plant a tree. We will have seedlings and planting tools for you to use.
