Non-timber values in Haliburton Forest
",,"The focus of this paper will be limited to instrumental value considerations of how humans value trees. Despite the fact that pro-environment attitudes have been growing for decades and public awareness of the impact of human actions continues to increase, we remain a consumptive global culture dependent on excessive accumulation of material goods. There is a failure and reluctance to acknowledge values other than economic ones, a condition fostered by those in power while those who demand that these values have social importance have a lesser-heard voice. Trees are an important component and a reliable indicator of a healthy environment and given the vast open spaces allocated for parks in cities and increasing utilization of more sustainable forest management practices, the values we attribute to trees are increasingly acknowledged.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"business,Cultural Studies,Environment Studies,forests,resources,trees",http://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/ae663e19d40c28d456bab8467019d988.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0 "The Haliburton Forest & Wildlife Reserve and the Bioregion of Haliburton","Luft, George",,,,1991,"Haliburton Highlands Museum",,"THIS PAPER IS RESTRICTED TO MUSEUM USE ONLY AND DOES NOT GO OUT ON LOANThe Haliburton Forest & Wildlife Reserve is located in the northern townships of Havelock and Eyre.

A main component of the theory of bioregionalism is that its strength and function ability begin with the individual commitment of the people in a given community. The paper puts forth the idea that foraging can make a valuable contribution to the development of a local bioregion as it helps develop individual values and skills which permit the participant to put into practice some of the aspects of the theory.
Drawing from a number of sources, the paper is a catalogue of edible plants organized first by general tree type or habitat. For each plant noted, common and scientific botanical names are given as well as distinguishing characteristics, habitat appearance, blooming period, and season to harvest. Information concerning preparation for medicinal and food purposes is included and notes of interest complete each record. Hand-drawn illustrations accompany the text and all information is cross-referenced in an index.

Travelling the area, they map out 10 sugarbushes and relate the experiences of the producers with regard to their work, their sense of living on the land, and their perspectives on cooperative efforts and membership in a central organization such as the Ontario Maple Syrup Producers Association.
The authors' reflections on the sense of community among producers and the economics of the industry conclude the paper.
The paper explores the connection between concepts of bioregionalism and ecologically responsible forest use to provide the theoretical and philosophical context for a discussion of how these ideas play out in reality in Haliburton County in general, and at the Haliburton Forest and Wildlife Reserve in particular. As a preface, a brief historical overview of the changing forest and forest practices in Haliburton County is provided. From information obtained through personal interviews, the author looks at the nature of wholistic forest use currently practiced at the Wildlife Reserve and the way in which this system of forest use impacts on community and place in the County. The potential for Haliburton Forest as a model of wholistic forest use is considered along with the issues involved in transferring that model.

16 000 people. Haliburton Highlands promotes a high quality of life offering recreational activities for all
seasons, robust arts and cultural community and a strong business sector creating an ideal location for
development and investment.
The Business Retention and Expansion project was initiated by the Haliburton Highlands Chamber of
Commerce with the objective to facilitate business planning and growth by identifying and interviewing
local companies, associations and service groups to determine needs, barriers and opportunities. 15%
of the businesses were interviewed resulting in a significant representation of the business sector.
The businesses boasted a high quality of life and are satisfied with the essential services, support from
municipality, land costs and labour costs. There is generally a positive attitude regarding the future of
the business community reflected by the number of planned expansions and capital investments.
There are many positive attributes to the business community, however the businesses highlighted
many barriers to growth including the seasonality of the market, financial support, labour attraction and
training, information accessibility, marketing and infrastructure. These barriers are addressed with a
comprehensive action plan that contains strategies and evaluation tools.
The community based approach of the Business Retention and Expansion project will create local
commitment while developing a knowledge base of what drives their local economy and how they can
become proactive in setting the direction for long term community sustainability and growth. This will
ensure the community 'buy-in' necessary to implement the BRE Action Plan.
Commercial and industrial recycling
",,"This project began with a growing concern about the life of landfills within Algonquin Highlands Township and the amount and type of recycling that was going on by local businesses. Information was obtained through the use of a survey conducted with 21 businesses, one service provider and several landfill attendants.
