B.C.-based reforestation startup Flash Forest has relocated its primary manufacturing facilities and field-operations hub to Calgary, positioning the city as a base for scaling automated reforestation across Western North America.
Supported by Emissions Reduction Alberta, the move consolidates manufacturing, equipment staging, and deployment to accelerate commercial-scale restoration of fire-impacted and degraded landscapes. Flash Forest combines drone-based and land-based automated planting with expanded tree-species diversity and AI-powered forest intelligence. The company previously raised $11.4 million in Series A financing co-led by the TELUS Pollinator Fund for Good.
