Dave_Carl_Somerville_3Carl Mansfield has joined Maple Leaves Forever in a consulting capacity to provide technical support to MLF by acting as a contact and liaising with MLF, its customers and its Nursery Partners.

Carl brings with him thirty years of comprehensive experience dedicated to the production of bare root seedlings and nursery stock at provincial nurseries in Ontario. He is well-known and respected for his cultural knowledge and expertise.

Most of this time was spent growing trees at the Midhurst Forest Tree Nursery near Barrie. Carl worked with peers within the provincial nursery organization to facilitate the development of provincial standards for seedling production, growing prescriptions, cultural and operational improvements and the introduction of new technologies that resulted in the production of improved planting stock for the Ministry and its many customers.

In 1998, Carl was hired by Somerville Nurseries Inc. to lead the development of its new Bare Root Seedling Division at Everett, near Alliston.
