British Columbia’s Woodlot License Program has captured international attention. Foresters in Scotland have used the B.C. model to develop their own resource stewardship program in that country. The recently formed Scottish Woodlot Association has been working closely with members of the Federation of BC Woodlot Associations (FBCWA) to draw the blueprints for an innovative woodlot program. It will bridge the gap between their large-scale public and private sector holdings and individuals wanting to participate in small-scale forestry activities.
