We are in the home stretch of planting season! Snow is still covering a few areas that need to get planted, but when the snow melts and crews are able to get the last seedlings in the ground, MB&G foresters will have supervised the planting of approximately 2.5 million trees this season. It’s a huge team effort to get so many trees planted in one season so a big thank you to all the hard work put in by the contractors and nurseries we work with. April is a great month to celebrate this achievement as it’s Oregon Arbor Month.
Field days often reveal more than what’s on the map. Recently, our foresters wrapped up a timber check cruise on scattered parcels in SW Oregon. Our role was to audit contractor cruise data and revisit plots to identify any potential discrepancies.
