Come support the AFA through the purchase of fair-trade gift items at our upcoming fundraiser sale! Ten Thousand Villages Commercial Drive is donating 15% of proceeds on Saturday November 24th to the AFA's work to protect BC's endangered old-growth forests.
Sam is giving out free handkerchiefs at UBC, hoping that anyone who takes one will use the hanky, rather than a paper towel, to dry their hands after they use the washroom.
Echo Lake is a spectacular, extremely rare lowland ancient rainforest a hundred kilometres east of Vancouver – in a region where virtually all of the valley bottom old-growth forests are gone. It may be the world’s largest night-roosting site for bald eagles, as thousands come each fall to eat spawning salmon in the Harrison and Chehalis Rivers in the Sts'ailes First Nations’ territory. Echo Lake’s lowland ancient forests – as rare as Sasquatch these days – are lacking legislated protection.
This Friday night folks in Victoria are generously hosting a fundraiser for the AFA at the Cenote Lounge (768 Yates Street) with awesome live music, DJ's and food! Doors open at 7:30pm & tickets $10 at the door. The show goes until close at 2am. We'd love to see you there!
Spend your conservation dollars for echo lake and eagles in the local communites.
The Ancient Forest Alliance is currently campaigning to protect the Echo Lake Ancient Forest between Mission and Agassiz in Sts’ailes First Nation territory. When visiting this region, including the Fraser Valley Eagle Festival on Nov. 17-18th, please show your support for the local communities by spending your dollars in those towns. Lets make it clear that conservation is good for business!
