Re: Folklore Contracting

Strange aversion to flagging tape at Folklore. This drove me nuts about Folklore. A couple years ago I planted with a big crew of (mostly) 2nd years who were chosen to tackle the tougher, nastier, schnarbier blocks in the rockies.

2010 Quesnel Contract

Wondering if anyone here will be working with NGR, on "Dom's crew" in the Quesnel area?

Any info on prices, type of land that people have historically encountered with this contract?

Re: 2009 Season....how's it going

I'm interested in what people have been experiencing as well. It would be nice if people included who they are planting for and where.

I'm just about to head out to the bush in a week or so after finishing up with Spring classes. Looking forward to it as well as how everyone's May went!
