Cold Storage

We have three cold storage facilities (all situated in Quesnel).

We can provide cold storage facilities for seedlings that were produced, both by SilvaGro or other Nurseries.

These trees are lifted in the fall and stored over winter. They are then thawed and prepared for planting the following spring.
