Its what they train for year after year, and hope they never have to put the skills to work. 2020 proved a big test. Together with teams from DNR and surrounding communities, the Irving Woodlands firefighting teams faced one of the most challenging seasons in 40 year. They kept one another and their communities safe amidst fires that burned thousands of hectares this summer. Recently, the Woodlands team - pilots, engineers, ground crews, cooks, supervisors and foresters -... came together to trade stories and share a meal to celebrate a safe ending to the 2020 fire season. "To say the 2020 fire season was busy would be an understatement. There were many long days and nights through the summer and everyone came together to get the job done without hesitation or any complaints. It makes you feel proud. Thank you to the entire team!" said Brad Abernethy, Silviculture Operations Manager, Irving Woodlands.

Its about more than just trees for foresters like John Williamson who grew up around the woods of Northern New Brunswick. John's love of the forests led to a career as a Planning Forester looking after water, wildlife and forests. Rural New Brunswick is home and keeping our forests and rural communities healthy and productive is important to me. I'm proud to be part of what sustains this great way of life." says John. John attended Saint Mary's University Halifax, rece...iving his degree in biology before attending the University of New Brunswick where he graduated with his Forestry and Environmental Management degree. John says, As a Forester and a New Brunswicker, the big reward is feeling really proud and lucky to be able to get up every morning, tie up my boots, and go to work with a team that is committed to managing our forest resources for today and generations to come. It’s also pretty great knowing my family is proud of the work I do and understand why its so important. #Forestry #WoodsInYourLife #OurPeople
