The Canadian Tree Seed Services and Suppliers Search Tool has been developed to help connect industry professionals looking to access seed services and supplies in Canada. This tool has been developed by the Forest Gene Conservation Association (FGCA) in partnership with Forests Canada (FC) and with the support of the National Tree Seed Centre under the Canadian Forest Service.
The tool has been developed with funding support from the Government of Canada's 2 Billion Trees Program and is part of the deliverables of the 2024 National Tree Seed Capacity Study undertaken by the organizations listed above. The mandate of the tool is to support tree planting and knowledge exchange through the program and other restoration programs across Canada.
Thanks to the contributions of organizations within the Tree Seed Working Group through the Canadian Forest Genetics Association, the tool recognizes industry professionals that provide seed services such as: seed collection, processing, storage, testing, growing, training, education and everything in between. The directory will be fluid and updated annually to add and connect more organizations and individuals providing seed related services.
