20th Season ~ 100 Millionth Tree 2011

Directions to the farm: 2km south or High Level. Turn east just north of the scales.
The farm is 3 km on the left. Stay left at the 90 degree curve in the road and drive to the big red shops.








We have a midseason day and night celebration planned. (During the Watt 5 camp). This will be a very productive super fun season. We have 8.5 million trees to plant in 12 weeks or so.

The theme for this season is appreciation. Good Vibes.. Appreciation for : Wildwoods, each other, the new awesome cooks, having a job, the staff, Tolko, LaCrete, Evergreen and all the past amazing people that built Wildwoods over the past 20 years. I have raised tree prices back to their highest amount. I want us all to work hard and try extra hard to be nice and not judge each other. Lets have fun and do our jobs well.

The new marshmaster drivers are all professional drivers from High Level. They are great guys and know everything about machines and how to fix them. The four of us meet at the farm the first week of April to do a full maintenance program on all three marshmasters. We are removing the tracks and fixing or tightening every single part. We have purchased a backhoe that attaches to the marshmaster for bridge building, shitters and snow caches. (unfortunately, no back hoe this year as all my snowcaches are on the other side of the Bushee Creek so I have to fly and open caches) I will plan on it for 2012.

Our new cooks are a married couple named Codie and Brad. They have a Karelian bear dog named Fremont. Camp will be bear free. Our crew is full (see confirmed list below) We have lowered the crews size down to 6 planters from 7, to allow crewbosses more time for their planters. Crewbosses will need to record a few quality plots per planter everyday. We will meet Friday May 13th at the farm party barn 1pm. We will do our orientation meeting for 2-3 hours. Plant the next day. Siteviewing happens in March, the siteprep and season details will be posted in March.
