About us

A small team that travels light and tells stories well.

Birchbark Media is a travel and tourism marketing agency based in Peterborough, Ontario. Since 2010 we’ve worked with destinations, tour operators and mission-driven organizations from the Kawarthas to Chile.

Our story

Born in 2010, built on story.

Birchbark Media started as the brainchild of founder Scott Adams. Scott got his start doing PR for Ontario Tourism, then, with an entrepreneurial streak and a love of the outdoors, began creating video and content marketing for the adventure travel world.

That client base grew from Muskoka to Chile, and so did what we do: photo and video, social and web content, email, paid media, and the systems that keep it all organized.

Today we work as an embedded part of our clients’ teams, so the stories we capture keep working long after the shoot.

Since 2010

Same moose. Sixteen years of stories.

What we believe

How we like to work.

Real people over stock footage

The best travel marketing feels lived in. We film the people and places that make you different.

One connected system

Capture, distribution and asset management work best together, so your content earns its keep.

Embedded, not outsourced

We work like part of your team: close to your goals, honest about what’s working, and easy to reach.

Who we are
