Eyes on Old Growth

Our Mission

Connecting people and places in defense of BC's last ancient forests.

Our Vision

To see an end to commercial logging of primary and old-growth forests by 2030 — and a just transition to sustainable forestry practices that serves both people and the land.

How We Work

We take a multi-pronged approach to protecting BC's ancient forests — building knowledge, growing the movement, and applying pressure where it matters most.

Education

We share the science, history, and stakes of old-growth loss with the public, policymakers, and media to build an informed and engaged constituency.

Training & Workshops

We equip community members, Indigenous land defenders, and volunteers with the skills to monitor, document, and respond to logging activity on the ground.

Advocacy

We engage directly with government, industry, and the public — presenting evidence, demanding accountability, and pushing for binding protections.

Agitate

We organize, mobilize, and disrupt the status quo. When dialogue fails, we escalate — through demonstrations, media campaigns, and civil action.

Resources

We develop and share tools, maps, reports, and guides that empower communities, journalists, and advocates with the information they need to act.

Support

We stand behind those on the front lines — offering solidarity, legal referrals, and coordination to Indigenous nations and community groups protecting their territories.
