Buy BCwild is an exciting initiative that is building public awareness and support for BC's unique forest products and services. The Centre for Non-Timber Resources began the initiative in 2005 to support the sustainable development of the sector with a number of on-going activities:
- Directory of products from the wilds of BC - a free consumers guide
The forests and wild areas of BC generate an amazing variety of products and related services that are in high demand by consumers. The Buy BCwild directory is a free resource where you can find the businesses and organizations that provide quality home-grown products - the directory is full of wild and wonderful things to discover. click here to view the current edition online. - Shop the Wild Festival - showcasing BC’s wild products and services
