EP39: Jeff Mycock—The Future of Our Forests

Feb 05 2025 44 mins

Forestry—what do you think when you hear the word? Maybe it conjures up logging and clearcuts. Maybe you think of economic drivers, wood products and heritage. Maybe you’re not 100 percent sure what it means! We outdoor enthusiasts spend a lot of time in forests. Forests have deep social and cultural value to us. But they also supply the materials that build the houses in which

Dec 26 2024 50 mins

As Canadians, we have a big country to explore. How do you do it? Fly place to place? Stay local? Road trip to a hotel? All good, sure. But lately, I’ve been exploring differently.

EP34: Dr. Saeid Mushtagh and Burgess Andre—Pine Pollen, Canada's Home-Grown Superfood

Dec 22 2023 45 mins

We’ve all heard the term “superfood” before. Often in relationship to things like acai, a berry native to south and central America, or coconut oil—maybe avocado. All of these foods, for Canadians anyway, would need to be imported. Such is the way… So, when I heard about a superfood that was being wild and sustainably harvested right here in British Columbia—one that ca

Welcome to episode 30 of Explore Magazine's "Live the Adventure" Podcast. Let's talk about bears. Those majestic, beautiful creatures that roam the wild lands of just about every region in Canada...
