Ethical Forestry, Done Right
Forestry built on Indigenous partnership, local accountability, and a standard we hold on every site.
Ethical forestry is not a slogan for Wild Timber Industries. It is how we plan our work, who we hire, and the standards we hold ourselves to on every project across BC and Alberta. Ethical logging means leaving sites better than the bare minimum requires, and being accountable to the communities whose land we work on.
Since 2017 we have operated in direct partnership with the Tahltan and Nisga'a Nations. That relationship is not a footnote. It shapes our planning, our hiring, and the long-term view we take of the forest and the people who depend on it.
Ethical forestry in practice.
Three commitments that show up on every site we work.
Indigenous partnership
A direct partnership with the Tahltan and Nisga'a Nations that shapes how and where we work.
Local capacity
Investing in training, youth development, and real career pathways for Indigenous workers in forestry.
Site accountability
We live here. If there is a problem on a site, you hear it from us first, and we own fixing it.
Partnership that shapes the work
Ethical forestry in BC starts with respecting the land and the people connected to it. Our partnership with the Tahltan and Nisga'a Nations means Indigenous priorities are built into how we plan and execute work, not bolted on afterward. We invest in local capacity through youth development programs and meaningful career pathways in forestry, fire, and resource services.
