A leading force in restorative forestry

We work with landowners, municipalities, and communities to restore forests across Atlantic Canada, converting low-quality and waste biomass into clean energy.

Sustainable forestry without compromise

ACFOR's dedicated planning department is separate from any sawmill affiliation. That independence means we never face pressure to harvest cheap wood at the expense of your land's long-term health.

We provide forest measurement, planning, wood product marketing, consulting, and restoration implementation — integrated operations that give us hands-on insight at every stage, from the first measurement to the final treatment.

What we do

Two complementary disciplines rooted in the same idea: healthy land, healthy communities.

Forestry

Restorative forest management

We transform degraded forested land into resilient, future-ready forests using cutting-edge practices, from stand improvement to wildland fire risk mapping.

  • Forest measurement & planning
  • Selective harvesting & stand improvement
  • Wood product marketing
  • Restoration & consulting
  • Wildland fire risk assessment
Clean Energy

Renewable biomass energy

Forest byproducts that society considers waste become net-zero fuel for communities. What we remove from the forest creates clean heat that powers local homes and businesses.

  • Renewable biomass energy production
  • Clean wood heat solutions
  • Community energy partnerships

Sainte-Marie-de-Kent — commercial thinning results

Green Horizons: our forest revitalization projects

From an 80-year-old stand in Scotch Settlement to commercial thinning in Sainte-Marie-de-Kent, our projects demonstrate what happens when ecological health and economic return are treated as the same goal.

We're passionate about creating a legacy of robust woodlands for generations to come.
