A B.C. Drone company has transported more than 1 million tree seedlings across Western Canada this year. Stinson Aerial Services, based in Kamloops, used a battery-powered heavy-lift drone to move the seedlings. The drone delivered about 3,300 boxes of seedlings from staging areas to reforestation crews. The effort supports commercial reforestation projects in the region.
The company’s drone technology enables efficient seedling distribution in remote areas. This method reduces the need for manual labor and improves the speed of planting. The initiative highlights the growing use of drones in environmental restoration. The project is part of broader efforts to combat deforestation and promote sustainable forestry.
Stinson Aerial Services has expanded its operations to Kamloops, marking a new base for its reforestation work. The company has been involved in similar projects in other parts of Canada. This year’s success demonstrates the potential of drone technology in large-scale ecological projects. The company plans to continue its efforts in the coming seasons.
