Claude P. Boisvert, a former tree planter, reforestation contractor and commercial fisherman, incorporated Earth-Net Communications (1985). The company launched Silviculture—Journal of The New Forest, North America’s first 4 colour magazine devoted exclusively to reforestation.
In 1991, he was instrumental in organizing The First National Silviculture Conference, held in Vancouver, Canada — and host to over 460 delegates and speakers from around the world.

One thing I love about working for a company like Tree World is: working with my dad and fulfilling on a vision of something much greater than ourselves.
A beloved place in nature is Chapman Creek. No matter the season, it is always a place I can go to find solace and quiet my mind.

One thing I love about working for a company like Tree World is: how the environment is constantly a topic of conversation. Our workplace is full of inspiring people that truly enjoy being in nature and are passionate about finding ways to protect it.
Trout Lake in North Bay ON is a beloved place outdoors. My grandparents lived on the lake and my entire extended family spent many years swimming, boating and camping in the summer and sledding and skating in the winter. I have so many great memories there and count myself lucky to have been able to grow up in that environment. Best part was hearing the loons at dusk.

A beloved place in nature is the snow and the forest…the peace and tranquility and beauty is such food for my soul.

One thing I love about working for a company like Tree World is: our work involves ecological relationships: allows the co-existance of wildlife and desireable plants. Non lethal control, not harmful to anything including insects.
Top of a mountain is my beloved place in nature. Camping, hiking, fishing as a child led to a love of mountaineering & nature observation.

Sarah White
One thing I love about working for a company like Tree World is: Providing a solution for others to enjoy their gardens and landscapes. Saving crops and millions of newly planted seedlings each year. I look forward to every growing season and hearing the countless customer reports of Plantskydd working when other repellents did not.
During the slow time my other passion is to travel, I am very grateful that I have the opportunity to take long periods of time to experience the beauty of our world.
