to April 1, 1985 the
Thornhill Nursery,
situated on 25 hectars (70
acres) of land, was but a
test nursery site.

by Daniele Berquist.

Now the project is in
full production and has
become a successful
endeavor said nursery
supervisor, Tom Harvie.
“We are hoping to be
producing 10 million
trees for this year.”

These trees will then be:

shipped to various com-
panies for planting.

Thornhill Nursery may grow

The Thornhill Nursery
is comprised of two
greenhouses and eight
Shelters. The difference
between the two, noted
Harvie, is that the first
has heat and the other’
doesn’t,

The nursery has a staff
of six regular positions.
We hire an average of
100 people on a “when
required”’ basis, Harvie
noted, This means that
when we need people to
do the extracting of
trees, for example, we
hire them for the time
needed.

Spruce trees, pine,
hemlock and cedar are
raised for transplant pur-

‘poses, As for the future,

Harvie said,. a cold
storage unit is in the
making.

The purpose, he add-
ed, was for immediate
planting in the spring,
Depending on species of
trees they can be stored
anywhere from three to
six months from when
the trees are lifted in the
fall.

Harvie said that a
good season is expected
for next year.
