Natural Stand Seed Collections

Natural stand collections are made by one of several methods. These include climbing, felling, helicopter collections or ground collections,  depending on which method is the most cost-effective  or appropriate for the volume of the collection.  Custom collections are made in British Columbia for numerous clients in the local forest industry , as well as for clients from other countries.

• Two Douglas Fir orchards, one for reforestation on coastal British Columbia, and one for Christmas tree growers.
• A low elevation Western Hemlock orchard.
• A Western Red Cedar orchard for the Pacific Northwest.
• Two Sitka Spruce orchards, one for European clients, and the only private Sitka Spruce orchard for weevil resistance.
