About
Meg Webster
In 2014 I started tree planting in Northern AB. In 2016 I switched over to BC and shortly after began working full seasons starting and finishing with Coastal work. In 2018 I shifted to management and started running crews until 2020.
Theatre Creator / People & Culture Consultant
Origin

Current Location

In 2018, I started bringing harassment training and mental health awareness to my communities. In 2021, I spoke at the Western Forestry Contractors Association conference on "Creating Emotionally Safer Workplaces." Since hanging up my shovel (it is literally hanging up on my wall), I've shifted my focus to creative opportunities and to independent consulting. As a consultant I've worked on Planter Representative training; advising on bullying, harassment, and violence complaints and reports; and most recently I've been working as the Project and Communications Manager for this website! (yay!)
