Boreal Boost

Fast-growing native cover for industrial reclamation

Boreal Boost is a native seed capsule designed to help industrial reclamation sites get living cover established faster. It brings together locally adapted seed with beneficial soil biota in a simple, ready-to-apply capsule.

Made with locally adapted seed collected in Blueberry River First Nation territory in Treaty 8, Boreal Boost includes native disturbance-responsive plants such as goldenrod, fireweed, yarrow, willow, and balsam poplar. The mix is selected for rapid establishment, early flowering, seed production, and ground-cover potential.

By combining regionally appropriate seed with living soil biology, Boreal Boost supports early site recovery while helping move reclamation away from generic cover crops and toward native, ecologically suitable plant communities.

Best used for

• Industrial reclamation sites that need faster native cover.
• Exposed mineral soils and disturbed areas where early vegetation establishment is important.
• Projects seeking a native alternative to generic cover crop approaches.
