WorkCabin Creative does video work for ALUS Norfolk, ALUS Canada
WorkCabin Creative has wrapped up two days of filming for ALUS Norfolk and ALUS Canada.
The video work, both on the ground and in the air, included filming in tallgrass prairie grasslands in Norfolk County, Ontario. Other locations were habitat for monarch butterflies, marginal farmlands being restored to natural landscapes, and existing farms participating in the organization’s national agriculture stewardship programs.
Part of this video production work is made possible through ALUS obtaining funding from Environment and Climate Change Canada.
ALUS Canada works with farmers to offset their environmental footprint through agricultural stewardship. ALUS invests in farmers and ranchers who are producing acres of clean air, clean water, wildlife habitat and other ecosystem services in communities across Canada. The ALUS program is now active in six Canadian provinces and is seen as a national success story for agriculture and nature.
Specifically, ALUS helps farmers and ranchers restore wetlands, reforest, plant windbreaks, install riparian buffers, manage sustainable drainage systems, create pollinator habitat and establish other ecologically beneficial projects on their properties.
“This is a very exciting project to be involved in because of the nature of this work by ALUS,” said conservation filmmaker Gregg McLachlan at WorkCabin Creative. “ALUS has a conservation model in Canada that has attracted attention around the world as a successful model for conservation and agriculture can work together so that communities benefit.”
ALUS provides annual payments to its participants to ensure the ongoing stewardship of each of their ALUS projects.
