    Existing trees will be removed from the site of the new Dawson Creek & District Hospital in order to clear space for the start of construction. An analysis was done on the existing trees to determine if they would survive being transplanted to another location and it was determined that some of them were unhealthy and others likely wouldn't survive, so they have to be removed.

    Recognizing that greenspace is an important element of our community, the new hospital has a sitewide landscape plan with over 80 new and healthy trees and hundreds of local plants which will be planted towards the end of the project.

    As part of the project's site preparation, Northern Health relocated the old community garden to a new location further south on Northern Lights College's campus. The grand opening of the community garden was held last year and the garden has been growing rapidly since. This space gives the local community a place and space to get involved in gardening and rent their own garden bed to grow and harvest what they would like.

    We hope that you all have a very merry holiday season and a happy new year!
