                         PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

                  Attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following information contains certain forward-looking statements that
anticipate future trends or events. These statements are based on certain
assumptions that may prove to be erroneous and are subject to certain risks
including but not limited to the risks of increased competition in the Company's
industry and other risks detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange
Commission filings. Accordingly, actual results may differ, possibly materially,
from the predictions contained herein.

Company operations were up during the second quarter of Fiscal 2001, ended
February 28, 2001, as sales increased over the first quarter of Fiscal 2001.
Gross sales increased $1,559,795 during the second quarter of Fiscal 2001 as
compared to the second quarter of Fiscal 2000. During the second quarter of
Fiscal 2001, the Company experienced an increase in net income of $5,909 as
compared to the second quarter of Fiscal 2000. Management continues to believe
that the buying patterns in the area of building materials have shifted and that
sales which previously occurred in the Company's second fiscal quarter of
operations will now occur in the third and, in some instances, the fourth fiscal
quarters. The overall result was net income of $47,496 for the second quarter of
Fiscal 2001 and net income for the first six months of Fiscal 2001 of $131,459.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

The Company's operations are classified into three principle industry segments:
(sales of) building materials and (sales of) industrial tools and (sales of)
processed agricultural seeds.

Sales of building materials consists of wholesale sales of lumber and building
materials in the United States. Sales of industrial tools consists of
distribution of pneumatic air tools and industrial clamps in the United States.
Sales of seeds consists of distribution of processed agricultural seeds in the
United States.


Three Months Ended February 28, 2001 and February 29, 2000:

For the second quarter of the current fiscal year, ending February 28, 2001,
sales increased 52.2% to $4,545,515 compared to $2,985,720 for the same quarter
of the previous year.

General and administrative expenses for the Company were $742,631 for the second
quarter up from $482,942 for the second quarter of last year. The primary
reasons for the increase of $259,689 are increases of $26,114 in depreciation
and amortization; $7,416 in travel, entertainment and advertising; $162,942 in
wages and employee benefits; $13,832 in office and miscellaneous related
expenses; $21,387 in insurance; $3,900 in professional

<PAGE>
fees; $6,011 in telephone; $2,338 in repairs and maintenance; and, $15,150 in
warehouse expenses and supplies.

Net income for the quarter was $47,496 which represents a 14% increase over the
second quarter of last year when net income was $41,587. The increase in net
income was due primarily to an increase in sales of $1,559,795 over the same
period last year.

Earnings per share (fully diluted) were $0.05 for the second quarter of Fiscal
2001 compared to $0.04 for the second quarter of fiscal 2000, an increase of
25%.


Six Months Ended February 28, 2001 and February 29, 2000:

Sales in the first six months of Fiscal 2001 increased 15.8% to $8,265,315
compared to $7,135,436 for the same period last year.

Sales for Jewett-Cameron Lumber were $6,885,023 for the six-month period, up 5%
compared to sales of $6,558,181 for the same period of last year.

Sales for MSI-PRO (pneumatic tools and industrial clamps) were $453,636 for the
six-month period compared to $532,883 for the same period of last year, down 15%

Sales for Jewett-Cameron South Pacific in the Kingdom of Tonga were nil for the
six-month period compared to $44,372 for the same period of last year. The
Company is currently winding down its operations in the Kingdom of Tonga.

Sales for Jewett-Cameron Seed Company were $926,656. The Company entered the
seed distribution business during the three month period ended November 30,
2000. During that period the Company acquired all of the assets, including land,
buildings and equipment of Agrobiotech Inc. for total proceeds of $1,530,762. On
October 31, 2000, the Company incorporated Jewett- Cameron Seed Co. under the
laws of Oregon. This subsidiary operates as a processor and distributor of
agricultural seed products and the six month period ended February 28, 2001 is
the first reporting period for the Company's seed sales.

General and administrative expenses for the Company were $1,380,142 for the
six-month period, up from $1,023,142 for the same period of last year. The
primary reasons for the increase of $356,912 are increases of $34,693 in
depreciation and amortization; $4,322 in travel, entertainment and advertising;
$245,132 in wages and employee benefits; $11,137 in office and miscellaneous
related expenses; $27,824 in insurance; $5,040 in telephone; and, $45,933 in
warehouse expenses and supplies. A decrease did occur in the categories of
professional fees of $22,970 and repairs and maintenance of $3,131.

Net income for the first six months of Fiscal 2001 was $131,459 which represents
a 12% increase over the first six months of last year when net income was
$117,760. The increase in net income was due primarily to an increase in sales
of $1,129,879 as compared to the same period last year.

Earnings per share (fully diluted) were $0.13 for the first six months of Fiscal
2001 compared to $0.11 for the same period of fiscal 2000. This is an increase
of 18%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of February 28, 2001 the Company had working capital of $3,114,934 which
represented a decrease of $981,952 as compared to the working capital position
of $4,096,886 on February 29, 2000. The decrease in working capital was due to a
decrease in inventory of $355,274; an increase in bank indebtedness of $963,847;
and, an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $904,387. At the
end of the second quarter of Fiscal 2001 cash and cash equivalents; accounts
receivable and prepaid expenses increased $1,241,556 as compared to the end of
the second quarter of Fiscal 2000.

Accounts Receivable and Inventory represented 96% of current assets and both
continue to turn over at acceptable rates.

External sources of liquidity include a bank line from the United States
National Bank of Oregon. The total line of credit available is $6.5 million of
which there was an outstanding balance as of February 28, 2001 of $3,171,724. As
of the end of Fiscal 2000 (August 31st) the Company had no outstanding balance
and at the end of the second quarter of Fiscal 2000, the Company had an
outstanding balance of $2,207,877.

Based on the Company's current working capital position, its policy of retaining
earnings, and the line of credit available, the Company has adequate working
capital to meet its needs during the current fiscal year.

IMPACT OF THE YEAR 2000 ISSUE:

The Year 2000 Issue arises because many computerized systems use two digits
rather than four to identify a year. Date-sensitive systems may recognize the
year 2000 as 1900 or some other date, resulting in errors when information using
year 2000 dates is processed. In addition, similar problems may arise in some
systems, which use certain dates in 1999 to represent something other than a
date. Although the change in date has occurred, it is not possible to conclude
that all aspects of the Year 2000 Issue that may affect the company including
those related to customers, suppliers, or other third parties, have been fully
resolved.

 ITEM 3.          QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT
                  MARKET RISKS:

The Company did not have any derivative financial instruments as of February 28,
2001. However, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk.

The Company's interest income and expense are most sensitive to changes in the
general level of U.S. interest rates. In this regard, changes in U.S. interest
rates affect the interest earned on the Company's cash equivalents as well as
interest paid on debt.

The Company has a line of credit whose interest rate is based on various
published rates that may fluctuate over time based on economic changes in the
environment. The Company is subject to interest rate risk and could be subject
to increased interest payments if market interest rates fluctuate. The Company
does not expect any change in the interest rates to have a material adverse
effect on the Company's results from operations.
<PAGE>
FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

The Company operates a subsidiary in the Kingdom of Tonga. The Company's
business and financial condition is, therefore, sensitive to currency exchange
rates or any other restrictions imposed on its currency. Since the Company is
currently winding down its operations in the Kingdom of Tonga, management does
not expect the foreign currency exchange rates to significantly impact the
Company in the future.

1.      BUSINESS COMBINATION AND ACQUISITION

        The Company was incorporated under the Company Act of British Columbia
on July 8, 1987.

        acquired all of the assets, including land, buildings and equipment of
        Agrobiotech Inc. (Hillsborough) for total proceeds of $1,530,762.

        The cost of the acquisition was allocated as follows:

           Land                                      $     456,713
           Buildings                                       782,781
           Warehouse equipment                             285,768
           Office equipment                                  5,500
                                                     -------------

                                                     $   1,530,762
                                                     =============

        The Company and its subsidiaries operate as a distributor of lumber and
        other building products, as a distributor of industrial tools, and as a
        retailer of building materials.

        Following the acquisition, the Company incorporated Jewett-Cameron Seed
        Co. under the laws of Oregon, U.S.A. on October 31, 2000. This
        subsidiary operates as a processor and distributor of agricultural seed
        products.


2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

        Generally accepted accounting principles

        In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial
        statements contain all adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal
        recurring accruals) to present fairly the financial information
        contained therein. These statements do not include all disclosures
        required by generally accepted accounting principles and should be read
        in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for
        the year ended August 31, 2000. The results of operations for the period
        ended February 28, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
        be expected for the year ending August 31, 2001.

        Principles of consolidation

        These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
        Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, The Jewett-Cameron Lumber
        Corporation, MSI-Pro Co., and Jewett-Cameron Seed Co., all of which are
        incorporated under the laws of Oregon, U.S.A. and Jewett-Cameron South
        Pacific Ltd., which is incorporated under the laws of Tonga.

        Significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated
        upon consolidation.

        Estimates

        The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
        accepted accounting principles required management to make estimates and
        assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
        and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
        financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
        during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
        estimates.

2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd.....)


        Revenue recognition

        The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of building supply
        products, tools and processed agricultural seeds, when the products are
        shipped and the ultimate collection is reasonably assured.


        Currency

        These financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars as the
        Company's operations are based predominantly in the United States.


        Cash and cash equivalents

        Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with
        original maturities of three months or less.


        Inventory

        Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost and net realizable value
        based on the average cost method.


        Capital assets and depreciation

        Capital assets are recorded at cost and the Company provides for
        depreciation over the estimated life of each asset on a straight-line
        basis over the following periods:

          Office equipment                       5-7 years
          Warehouse equipment                    2-10 years
          Automotive equipment                   4 years
          Buildings                              5- 30 years


        Foreign exchange

        Financial statements of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are
        translated whereby all monetary assets and liabilities are translated at
        the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and
        liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the
        transaction date. Income and expenses are translated at rates which
        approximate those in effect on transaction dates. Gains and losses
        arising from restatement of foreign currency monetary assets and
        liabilities at each period end are included in earnings.


        Comparative figures

        Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the
        presentation adopted for the current period.

2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd.....)

        Financial instruments

        The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash
        equivalents, accounts receivable, deposits, bank indebtedness and
        accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Unless otherwise noted, it is
        management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant
        interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial
        instruments. The fair value of these financial instruments approximate
        their carrying values, unless otherwise noted.

        Earnings per share

        In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
        Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per
        Share" ("SFAS 128"). Under SFAS 128, basic and diluted earnings per
        share are to be presented. Basic earnings per share is computed by
        dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average
        number of common shares outstanding in the period. Diluted earnings per
        share takes into consideration common shares outstanding (computed under
        basic earnings per share) and potentially dilutive common shares.

        The earnings per share data for the periods ended February 28, 2001 and
        February 29, 2000 is summarized as follows:

        Accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities

        In September 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
        Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 "Accounting for
        Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133") which
        establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
        instruments and for hedging activities. SFAS 133 is effective for all
        fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. In June
        1999, the FASB issued SFAS 137 to defer the effective date of SFAS 133
        to fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The
        adoption by the Company of SFAS 137 during the current period did not
        have any impact on its financial statements.

2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd.....)

        Post retirement benefits

        Post retirement benefits are accounted for on an accrual basis. Any
        difference between net periodic post retirement benefit cost charged
        against income and the amount actually funded is recorded as an accrued
        or prepaid cost. This policy is consistent with Financial Accounting
        Standards No. 106, "Employers Accounting for Post Retirement Benefits
        Other than Pensions".

        In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying
        amount of an asset may not be recoverable and an estimate of future
        undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset,
        an impairment loss will be recognized. Management's estimates of
        revenues, operating expenses, and operating capital are subject to
        certain risks and uncertainties which may affect the recoverability of
        the Company's investments. Although management has made its best
        estimate of these factors based on current conditions, it is possible
        that changes could occur which could adversely affect management's
        estimate of the net cash flow expected to be generated from its
        operations.

        The bank indebtedness is secured by an assignment of accounts receivable
        and inventory. Interest is calculated at either prime or the libor rate
        plus 225 basis points.


7.      STOCK OPTIONS

        Stock options to purchase securities from the Company can be granted to
        directors and employees of the Company on terms and conditions
        acceptable to the regulatory authorities of Canada, notably the Toronto
        Stock Exchange ("TSE"), the Ontario Securities Commission and the
        British Columbia Securities Commission.

        Under the stock option program, stock options for up to 10% of the
        number of issued and outstanding common shares may be granted from time
        to time, provided that stock options in favour of any one individual may
        not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares. No stock
        option granted under the stock option program is transferable by the
        optionee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and
        each stock option is exercisable during the lifetime of the optionee
        only by such optionee.

        The exercise price of all stock options, granted under the stock option
        program, must be at least equal to the fair market value (subject to
        regulated discounts) of such common shares on the date of grant.

        At February 28, 2001, employee incentive stock options were outstanding
        enabling the holders to acquire the following number of shares:

8.     EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

       The Company sponsored an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP") that
       covers all U.S. employees who are employed by the Company on August 31 of
       each year and who have at least one thousand hours with the Company in
       the twelve months preceding that date. The ESOP grants to participants in
       the plan certain ownership rights in, but not possession of, the common
       stock of the Company held by the Trustee of the Plan. Shares of common
       stock are allocated annually to participants in the ESOP pursuant to a
       prescribed formula.

9.     STOCK BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE

       Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
       Stock-Based Compensation", encourages but does not require companies to
       record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at
       fair value. The Company has chosen to account for stock-based
       compensation using Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
       "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". Accordingly, compensation
       cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of quoted
       market price of the Company's stock at the date of grant over the option
       price. No stock based compensation has resulted from the use of this
       prior standard.

        No new stock options were granted during the fiscal period ended
        February 28, 2001.


        Following is a summary of the status of the plan during 2001, 2000 and
        1999:

10.    CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS

      a)   The Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan, whereby the
           employees may earn up to 90,000 shares of the Company using a formula
           based on years of service. The establishment of the plan resulted in
           the Company forming a trust, which acquired from the Company 90,000
           shares at a deemed price of Cdn$5.00 per share. As at February 28,
           2001, February 29, 2000 and August 31, 2000, 90,000 of these shares
           were earned by the employees under this plan but remain in the trust
           (Note 7).

       b)  At February 28, 2001, the Company had an un-utilized line-of-credit
           of approximately $4,500,000.
