Replant.ca - Tree Planting Canada

Well, i have to say wow, that a big company like that, with its million camps went under. Not only does this change things totally with contracts and seasons, but think of all those planters without jobs...this is HUGE for the remaining companies..its exciting to see what is going to happen. I am so...

I was never a fan of the glove..found I couldn't feel or grab the tree right. I always just duct tape..but since you wanna switch hands...that would be kinda time consuming to duct tape them both (I have seen it done!). The gloves I have seen used are Blue Bell dish gloves.

My first year planting, I went all alone to Ontario, I was 17yrs old and very scared. But.....you make friends right away. You are in a camp of people who are there to rely on each other and therefore you are not alone and you make friends quickly. It is a bit harder when everyone already knows each...

Hey there..you aren't likely wondering much about MCR anymore (likely have a job for the summer), but I thought I would still tell you a little about them for future reference! I worked with them for one year, my rookie year. They are based out of Dryden, Ont. A small family owned business, Skene is...
