The Wells Gray Community Forest spring planting program is in full gear. A silviculture company, Jason Flear Consulting from Dunster, is carrying out the planting program.
The program is targeting pine salvaged openings with a mixture of fir, spruce and pine seedlings. A total of 220,000 seedlings are being planted (150 person-days), with a target end date of June 15.
So far, the weather in 2013 has been favourable and ideal for seedling survival and crop establishment.
