First Nations and industry in the Cariboo Chilcotin are working hard this winter to use wood fibre that would otherwise be burned after receiving funding by the Forest Enhancement Society of BC (FESBC).

The latest round of $3 million in new grants supports 15 different projects across the province, which Minister of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development, Katrine Conroy said will support local jobs and help make better use of wood debris left behind after timber harvesting.
