Word from the CEO:
" I am proud to report HELP's five year old tree production and research center has gotten additional traction in 2020. Some of our bigger achievements:
i) our current crop is the largest largest crop we have produced at the tree farm
ii) The seedlings for all tree varieties have achieved their longest stems and best container roots yet achieved at the tree farm with average stem length twice that of recent years.
iii) We have increased the diversity of genetic material by contracting four additional outside sourcing of genetic material to propagate trees and have created a second new major 15,000 square meter genetic garden at our own center with diverse strains of our regular line of poplars and willows.
iv) We have entered into an agreement with an adjacent landowner to drain their floodwaters onto our land to shore up HELP's own water resources in its two main reservoirs.
Thank you to all landowners, municipalities, government departments, parks and schools across the prairies who purchase trees and planting services through HELP International's Shelterbelt Program"

iii) If an entire batch of a particular species is non viable then HELP will not distribute this non viable variety and will call the customer to arrange a substitution.
