Pineland
Forest Nursery provides seed extraction and
cleaning services for various conifer species,
most notably jack pine, red pine, white pine,
Scots pine, black spruce, white spruce, and
Norway spruce.
We
have different levels of service depending on
your requirements. We can clean seed to a basic (aerial) grade where seed is
cleaned to a degree that is adequate for
applications where direct seeding with either
aerial or ground equipment is required.

We
also clean seed to a higher degree for applications
requiring higher purity (i.e. greenhouse seeding).
We can also separate seedlots into different size
fractions.
All
extracted seed is dried down to a moisture content that
is proper for long-term storage.
Also we have facilities to test seed for
germination, purity, and viability.
Your
cones are source identified from the time they are
received through the cleaning process and into storage.
We have freezers on site to store seed and seed
will be retested every two to three years while in
storage.
