  • Working annually as a tree planter I've always wanted to try and capture and share the experience with others, as there are so many stories to tell. Though I can never fully show the beauty of the experience, I can try my best to explain just a little bit of it to others.

    Planting trees of same veriaties especially desiduous trees can bring more risk as in BC alot of where fires happen are logged and replanted areas because ground cover is not there to protect soil from sunlight. So when developing trees struggle due to loss of ecology in soil. They burn much easier.
    More importantly then this, is to have agriculture peoples and the lands grow trees perhaps ones for Yields like fruits and nuts etc to further the economic benefit. But more then that it will free the farmers. With deep roots the trees nurish surrounding crops, and landscapes. leaf fall will fertilize but more importanly support ecology(ie worms insects, etc) Will be benifitted bringing nurishment to the land) It will also hold reserses of water with an organic content in the soil of 8-12% the amount of water it can hold will double. The land will have more rainfall farmers wont have to irrigate as much plus the land wont be harmed from mall practices(ie tilling, plowing. The worms and life in the soil will airate itself creating the conditions optimal for nurished plant development. This is how we can save nutrition of humans and degradation of the land. The big issue now is implementing it on the ground and on other nations.

    Hi G Frog: this will be my first season trying this exciting job. Any tips on work boot to use that won’t fall apart?

    • @G-Frog
      @G-Frog  Před 2 měsíci

      Everybody has their own type of boots they swear by. Some people will tell you good hiking boots like Scarpas that will last multiple seasons. Others will say logging caulk boots. What i have used and loved for the last 4 or more seasons has been regular rubber boots. I buy about 2 or 3 decent pairs from Canadian Tire, Marks Work Warehouse, wherever, and get them 1 size bigger. Then I wear regular socks and bama socks so it is a snug fit in the boot, and the boot isn't loose at all. I prefer doing this because on rain days, through puddles, mud, wet terrain, my feet always stay warm and dry. They do fall apart, but that's why I bring 2 or 3 pairs, and generally I'm spending less than $100-$200 to have dry feet for the whole planting season, and you'll make that money back comfortably in no time.
      As its your first season, maybe try a pair of hiking boots, and a pair of rubber boots, especially because they can be cheap to pick up. See what you like best, because everyone is different.
      I hope your feet stay dry, and you have an AMAZING first season out in the bush! Depending on the company, being a rookie can be rough, but remember even on the hardest days you got this, you choose to be there, and to ignore any stupid people that poke fun at you for being a rookie. We all started out learning how to plant a tree properly, and we all grew from there. Stay safe, stay warm, and happy planting!

    • @gregcampbell622
      @gregcampbell622 Před rokem

      It would definitely have been 4200 since the world record is 23,000 in 24 hours but 4200 is balling for sure in BC. Centage ranged from about $.15 to upwards of $.25 per tree however average earnings on that day would probably be around $600-700

    • @G-Frog
      @G-Frog  Před rokem

      4200, not 42,000. I think that day the land was 18c, so it would've been $756 for the day

    • @cooperolm9687
      @cooperolm9687 Před 4 měsíci

      1-3 species being planted in a given block, usually. It's unfortunate that they're monocultures, but worth noting that this isn't for habitat restoration, this is a crop. It will be cut again in 40 or so years, rinse and repeat. Obviously not ideal, but better plantations than cutting old growth.
