The introduction to this publication defines a woodlot and the concept of woodland stewardship, and presents a private woodlot holder's perspective on the benefits of a woodlot to society. This is followed by a cross-Canada perspective of woodland stewardship, discussing the contributions of woodlots to Canadian life, the woodland community, the role of woodlands in agricultural landscapes & urban landscapes, the ecological services provided by woodlands, and an eastern Ontario initiative to implement a forested landscape network. The main section reviews woodland owners' stewardship activities in each province, with some information on woodlot ownership & size, forest products harvested from woodlots, and woodlot organizations. The final part outlines future challenges for woodland stewardship.

In recent decades, community forestry has taken root across Canada. Locally run initiatives are lauded as welcome alternatives to large corporate and industrial logging practices, yet little research has been done to document their tangible outcomes or draw connections between their ideals of local control, community benefit, ecological stewardship, and economic diversification and the realities of community forestry practice. This book brings together the work of over twenty-five researchers to provide the first comparative and empirically rich portrait of community forestry policy and practice in Canada. Tackling all of the forestry regions from Newfoundland to British Columbia, it unearths the history of community forestry, revealing surprising regional differences linked to patterns of policy-making and cultural traditions. Case studies celebrate innovative practices in governance and ecological management while uncovering challenges related to government support and market access. The future of the sector is also considered, including the role of institutional reform, multiscale networks, and adaptive management strategies.
