Our front yard. The trees are taking over.
Welcome!
Welcome to Sherwood's Forests Tree Farm.
We grow and sell Alberta hardy trees.
In this section:
- The SFTF Advantage talks about why our trees are special.
- Business Stuff is where you find our current (more or less...) price list and inventory, and ordering information.
- Contact Us has our snail mail address, hours, and maps of how to visit.
- Mission gives you an introduction to what we are about, and why we do it.
- Site Map is a list of all the links on the site for when you get lost.
In the other main sections:
Trees
Descriptions and pictures of the trees we sell. These pages speak of what I know about the tree, its preferences for soil, light, and water, how fast it grows, shape.
Mountain Pine
Advice
Perhaps this section should be called Opinions, or maybe Notions. It's my take on how to do things with trees. Articles about shelterbelts, landscaping considerations, watering, and, eventually, oodles of other stuff as I find time to write.
Our Forests
Pictures and text what my forests look like, and how they change with the seasons and the years.
Almanac
On any other site this would be called 'blog'. What an ugly word! I prefer Almanac, as it captures the flow of seasons. Notes about what I'm doing, and seeing on the farm. My way of sharing a bit of the beauty and magic of my world.
Links.
Sites and places I've found useful. Some quite technical, some of them are just to suppliers that have stuff that's hard to find.
Site Navigation
I dislike sites that have so many links that you find yourself
wandering in circles. Navigation here is in a hierarchy, much like the folders
on your computer. General stuff near the top level.
Specific stuff a few layer's deep.
At any point, the menu items in white show you
where you are in the directory.
If you have questions, comments, suggestions, rants, or raves; If you want to be emailed with my current inventory when it becomes available; if you just want to know when major updates have happend, drop me a line.
