The Fairy Creek Blockade has garnered international attention as protestors attempt to stop the logging of Old Growth trees on Vancouver Island. We visited the blockade near Port Renfrew to learn more about these ancient trees, their impact on biodiversity in British Columbia, and the community working to protect them.
Featuring Dr Rachel Holt, Pamela Leila Rai, Bill Jones, Kansas-Lee, and Forest Defender Jeff.

Native plants are vital to the ecosystem: for millennia, plants, pollinators and people have shaped each other’s existence. We visited the W̱SÁNEĆ Ethnobotany Trail to learn more about these plants, their significance to W̱SÁNEĆ culture, and the restoration work being done.
Featuring Sarah Jim, Earl Claxton Jr., Judith Lyn Arney and Kaitlin McManus.
