Worked for these guys way back in 1991-92. Great Rookie company, lots of good people and good parties. Not great coin, but at the time it was all good. Had a foreman by the name of Jono, awesome guy, best foreman I ever had. Last I heard he got out of the bush in 1998-99? I think Lloyds has downsized alot over the years, the intense P.G. competition. As far as I know the're still doing a 5-6 week season every year. (not sure about this?) I don't know, some of the guys I worked with had issues with the owner, Al Lloyd, but I remember the company as a solid place to work, and if you worked hard not bad coin.

And another one bites the dust ...

Out of business.

Smaller as a company but not out of business quite yet. 2006 was a dismal year dollar wise so instead of losing money and having a bunch of peeved planters we took a year off and passed our prefered work on to Northern Ventures of Prince George.

Good to hear. Good luck this summer ...

I met a couple planters that planted with these guys this season. They said prices and land was decent, but there was sometimes minor disorganization about when to leave the block/how long people worked each day. If I see the planters again (they might be joining TPC's Fort Saint John plant), I'll see if I can get them to come on here and post more information.

According to them, I've been hired for the season. Hopefully they havn't shut down haha.
I've been getting updates sent to me every few weeks. According to them it will be 8-10 weeks, starting in the beginning of May near Fort St. James.

Anyone have any other information on them?
