I used to collect seeds for the Forest Service as a kid in the 70's. Messy sticky work.
But, for those willing to really get after it, the pay wasn't bad, assuming one doesn't count the DAYS spent getting pitch off of everything, one's own self included!
- stjohnswarts 5y agoI'm just thinking about all the ticks in the underbrush...
- ddingus 5y agoIn the northwest ticks are less of a problem, but still something to watch for. Some kinds of trees, say noble fir, it's possible to climb the tree and harvest the cones, and or shake them loose, often right into a truck bed. Fun times, 50 feet up in a tree, in the winter... :D
