Honour In The Woods

Clear cutting has been, for the last fifty years, the predominant method of forest management on both public and private land in Nova Scotia. There are however, remarkable individuals who have recognized the damage being done through massive clear cuts, and who have opted for more
sustainable forestry practices.
Honour in the Woods introduces us to fifteen woodlot owners and forest activists from Nova Scotia in conversation about their vision for healthy and sustainable forests. Each describes methods they have used to restore and protect the biodiversity and richness of the
Acadian forests in their care.
The film captures the wisdom of extraordinary people such as
Dr. Wilfrid Creighton who brings more than 100 years of experience
living and working in the woods; Pamela Langille, a woods worker and
passionate activist; and forester Jim Drescher who has championed
sustainable forestry for years. This film inspires, and points toward the kinds of
changes that will one day bring genuine honour to the woods
and to all who spend time in them.

Honour in the Woods is dedicated with gratitude to Dr. Wilfrid Creighton and
Pamela Langille, both of whom passed on as the film was nearing its final form.
