The Association of BC Forest Professionals awards this designation to one community each year, bringing together residents who identify with the important contributions that forests make in their lives. This fun and prestigious designation means a community can take part in forestry-themed celebrations through art competitions, interpretive forest walks and logger sports shows.

The Association of BC Forest Professionals (est. 1947) ensures that British Columbia's forests are in good hands. It registers and regulates professional foresters and forest technologists under authority of the Foresters Act. The association has more than 5,400 members, including registered professional foresters, registered forest technologists and those working towards registration in B.C. It is the largest professional forestry association in Canada and the first to include forest technologists.
