42-hectare waterfront property on Galiano Island has been turned into a nature reserve, named Talking Trees Nature Reserve. The reserve includes old-growth Douglas fir, 600 meters of undeveloped rocky shoreline, coastal bluffs, Garry oak woodlands, and wetlands. It's one of the last intact tracts of mature forest on Galiano Island and will open to the public in 2025. The Old Growth Nature Fund, established by the provincial and federal governments, provided $1.77 million to support the project.
