Welcome to the Friends of the Qualicum Beach Forest
In 2019 , a small group of residents became concerned about the increased pace of the development and the accelerating loss of healthy, mature trees. Friends of the Qualicum Beach Forest was formed to advocate for tree protection measures in Qualicum Beach.
The Urban Forest Master Plan, which was then underway, was adopted by Council and is undergoing implementation. Tree Protection Bylaw #723 was adopted in 2023. In addition to making representations to Council we have organized multiple work parties to tackle ivy in the Community Forest and will be Celebrating Trees in conjunction with National Forest Week.
To get involved just sign up for our newsletter, which is issued bi-monthly or as needed, and you may unsubscribe at any time! It will keep you apprised of tree news and upcoming events!
All we need is your name and preferred email address.
Thanks for your interest.
