Support Whitebark and Limber Pine Conservation

Whitebark and Limber pines are keystone species vital to the health and resilience of high-elevation ecosystems. These iconic trees provide food and shelter for wildlife, stabilize fragile mountain soils, and contribute to overall biodiversity. However, they are facing significant threats from white pine blister rust, shifting fire regimes, and climate change. Without intervention, their future—and the ecosystems they support—is at risk.

At the Whitebark Pine Ecosystem Foundation of Canada (WPEFC), we are committed to protecting and restoring these irreplaceable species through science-based management, hands-on restoration, and dynamic educational outreach. Your support helps us advance these efforts and ensure the long-term survival of whitebark and limber pine.
