Many of my hobbies have me finding myself surrounded by oceans, lakes and forests.

In this post I’d like to share my experience of learning about the value chain and business activities from ‘end to end’.

I have been very excited to share this story as it’s one of the most memorable experiences from my time at Canfor and could not have happened without the support of my managers and some amazing colleagues. I like to call this story “the goat lick trip”.

Let's start with... well, why not Andy, since he's clearly not paying attention. He looks like he had an interesting summer. Tell us how you got those freaky tan lines. Or maybe that thousand-yard stare? Is that bug spray I smell?

When I met Chad, I found it amusing how he always seemed to have a piece of grass to roll between his teeth, even when there was no grass to be found.

I got my first impression of Rod, a woodlands supervisor at Tolko, during my internship training when I overheard him discussing the merits of a day at the beach: “I’d rather be doing anything else. I don’t get it. You’re just lying on dirt.”
