<p class="MsoNormal">HI Everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am planning to construct a boat launch in one of my waterfront parks this spring. I have been working with DFO in order to get the appropriate permits and approvals to construct and one of the stipulations is a significant mitigation
planting to offset the removal of the foreshore area. I have found 2 locations in other parks that meet the criteria for mitigation planting, however they are fairly remote in terms of having equipment present to help with this planting.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My question is, is there an easy way to complete the planting of ~700 small shrubs in 1-2 gal pots and 50 trees in 2 gal pots?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have lined up a school group to come help plant, and im thinking having them dig the holes will likely be too much, however I don’t think I will be able to get machinery onto the beach for multiple reasons. Im not even sure if I can get
soil dropped close to the planting site.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance,<o:p></o:p></p>
