In 2003 the small community of Lucaston opposed the logging of 1000 acres in their valley by the billion dolar logging company, Gunns Ltd. After 7 arrests and more than 3 months of protests the logging company only destroyed one small section of the 1000 acres. We won. Then in 2004, Gunns Ltd sued Adam Burling and Lou Geraghty as part of the infamous Gunns 20 case. With the trial set for Feb 2010, Baker's Creek is set for a new battle.
