Large Woodland Features
Forest interior habitat Aquatic features – small wetlands;
springs/seeps; vernal pools; streams Large woody debris Standing dead trees and cavity trees A diversity of trees species; Fruit and nut producing trees Stick nests and den trees

Tree Species Diversity
Pioneer species– poplar, cherries, white birch, white cedar, hawthorn, more recently Scots pine, buckthorn
Followed by those species more tolerant of shade – pines, spruces, ashes, basswood, oaks
Upland hardwood – hard maple, American beech, ironwood, hemlock, balsam fir

Our Concerns
Forest fragmentation Diminishing interior habitat, Forest health –invasive species and climate change Decreasing bio-diversity Lack of management, e.g. poor logging practices Threats to our natural heritage – headwater streams and
wetlands, old growth, super canopy white pine, diversity of tree species

Conserving Interior
Get help from local organizations Work with your neighbours Practice good forestry when harvesting Connect woodlots using blocks not lines
