The Ecoforestry Institute Society is a charitable organization that manages Wildwood, an 83-acre ecoforest in Yellowpoint, south of Nanaimo and on Vancouver Island.  It offers forestry-related educational tours, classes, workshops, fundraising events, conservation residences, and other activities to advance its research and education efforts.

We place value on the services provided by nature such as the provision of the air that we breathe, hydrological systems that filter and distribute water, carbon sequestration, the nutrients that feed the forest through natural decaying processes, and wildlife habitat. 

We believe it is essential to work within the capacity of nature, and that we can develop a viable economic framework built on the stewardship of an ecologically sound forest.  Economic value can be gained through the production of value-added wood goods and services, educational programming, ecotourism and related activities.  

EIS is the Trustee of Wildwood Ecoforest and holds the property on behalf of the people of British Columbia.
