This morning I woke up to a call from an unknown number. I picked up the call to find my old friend Fran on the other end of the line. I haven’t seen Fran since highschool, but today he called me to offer me a job planting trees in BC.
Last year I had a goal to plant 1000 trees in my business. Unfortunately, we were a few hundred trees short of the goal. My clients are mostly home owners looking for garden design or a tall tree row for privacy. Occasionally, I also get clients who want rows of saplings for future timber/food production. This has allowed us to plant hundreds of trees in 2021 (our second year in business). However, the clients that hire Fran’s company are very different from my clients and this job will allow me to reach my goal in just a day or two.
These clients are large corporations with vast swathes of land used for timber production. It is not uncommon for workers to plant over 1000 saplings in a single day. Since we will be planting for 3 months, it is even possible to hit 100,000 trees planted in a single planting season.
I am excited to embark on this adventure and blow my tree planting goal out of the park. I am also looking forward to learning more about tree planting so that I can provide more value to my clients.
The tree planting season in BC is usually May-July so I will still have about a month in April where I can serve my clients in Ontario. When I get home, it will be mid-summer – not the best time for planting. Therefore, I will be booking pond building projects for late summer 2022.
If you want to book tree planting in the Greater Toronto Area and East for April 2022, you can call me by hitting the green button in the bottom right corner (mobile only) or shoot me an email at scott@scalewithscott.ca.
Thanks for reading!

P.S.: I will also need somebody to take care of my cat while I’m away in BC so any animal lovers who want to make a bit of cash next summer can email me too!
