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 down during the second quarter of Fiscal 2002, ended
February 28, 2002, as sales decreased over the first quarter of Fiscal 2002.
Gross sales decreased $1,130,634 during the second quarter of Fiscal 2002 as
compared to the second quarter of Fiscal 2001. During the second quarter of
Fiscal 2002, the Company experienced an increase in net income of $24,143 as
compared to the second quarter of Fiscal 2001. As was the case last year,
management believes 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 $71,639 for the
second quarter of Fiscal 2001 and net income for the first six months of Fiscal
2002 of $165,131.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

Jewett Cameron's operations are classified into three principle industry
segments: sales of building materials, sales of industrial tools and sales of
processed agricultural seeds and grain. 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 and grain in the United States. The Company's major
distribution centers are located in North Plains, Oregon and Ogden, Utah.

Three Months Ended February 28, 2002 and February 28, 2001:

For the second quarter of the current fiscal year, ending February 28, 2002,
sales decreased 24.9% to $3,414,881 compared to $4,545,515 for the same quarter
of the previous year.

General and administrative expenses for the Company were $776,327 for the second
quarter up from $742,631 for the second quarter of last year. With the exception
of a recovery in bad debt recorded during the three month period ended February
28, 2001 in the amount of $39,993, general and administrative expenses decreased
approximately
<PAGE>

$7,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2002 as compared to the second quarter
of fiscal 2001. Reductions were experienced in the categories of insurance;
office and miscellaneous; professional fees; and, repairs and maintenance.
Slight increases occurred in the categories of telephone and utilities; travel,
entertainment and advertising; warehouse expenses and supplies; and, wages and
employee benefits.

Net income for the quarter was $71,639 which represents a 51% increase over the
second quarter of last year when net income was $47,496. The increase in net
income was due primarily to a decrease in the cost of sales of $1,190,033 and an
income tax recovery of $62,000 recorded during the second quarter of fiscal
2002.

Earnings per share (fully diluted) were $0.07 for the second quarter of Fiscal
2002 compared to $0.05 for the second quarter of fiscal 2001, an increase of
40%.

On February 25, 2002, the Company entered into an agreement with Greenwood
Forest Products, Inc., of Portland, Oregon, to acquire the business and certain
assets of Greenwood Forest Products on or about March 1, 2002. The assets being
acquired consisted of approximately $7 million of inventory (at year end) which
will be purchased in eight installments over the next two years for a price
equal to the seller's cost plus 2%; furnishings, equipment and supplies are
being purchased for $260 thousand, payable at closing; and, a license to use all
of the intangible assets of the seller for a five year term, with an option to
purchase for a nominal amount at the end of the term, is being acquired for $2
thousand, payable at closing. The initial acquisition price is being paid from
working capital and working capital loans.

Six Months Ended February 28, 2002 and February 28, 2001:

Sales in the first six months of Fiscal 2002 decreased 9% to $7,520,983 compared
to $8,265,315 for the same period last year.

Sales for Jewett-Cameron Lumber were $5,660,571 for the six-month period, down
18% compared to sales of $6,885,023 for the same period of last year.

Sales for MSI-PRO (pneumatic tools and industrial clamps) were $363,338 for the
six-month period compared to $453,636 for the same period of last year, down 20%

Sales for Jewett-Cameron Seed Company were $1,497,074 for the six-month period
compared to $926,656 for the same period of last year, an increase of 62%.

General and administrative expenses for the Company were $1,627,989 for the
six-month period, up from $1,380,054 for the same period of last year. The
primary reasons for the increase of $247,935 are increases of $29,453 in
depreciation and amortization; $11,890 in travel, entertainment and advertising;
$154,209in wages and employee benefits; $5,279 in insurance; $11,807 in
telephone; and, $30,044 in warehouse expenses and supplies. Decreases did occur
in the categories of office and miscellaneous of $15,520; professional fees in
the amount of $6,495; and, repairs and maintenance of $3,096.

Net income for the first six months of Fiscal 2002 was $165,131 which represents
a 26% increase over the first six months of last year when net income was
$131,459. The increase in net income was due primarily to a decrease in the cost
of sales of $1,059,021.
<PAGE>
Earnings per share (fully diluted) were $0.16 for the first six months of Fiscal
2002 compared to $0.13 for the same period of fiscal 2001. This is an increase
of 23%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of February 28, 2002 the Company had working capital of $3,869,991 which
represented an increase of $755,057 as compared to the working capital position
of $3,114,934 on February 28, 2001. The increase in working capital was due to
an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $50,438. ; an increase in inventory
of $1,050,522; and an increase in prepaid expenses of $134,848.

Accounts Receivable and Inventory represented 89% 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, 2002 of $941,276. As
of the end of Fiscal 2001 (August 31st) the Company had an outstanding balance
of $297,960.

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.


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS:

The Company did not have any derivative financial instruments as of February 28,
2002. 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.

1.       NATURE OF OPERATIONS

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

         The Company through its subsidiaries operates out of facilities located
         in North  Plains,  Oregon and Ogden,  Utah.  The Company  operates as a
         wholesaler of lumber and building materials to home improvement centres
         located  primarily  in the  Pacific and Rocky  Mountain  regions of the
         United  States,  as an importer and  distributor of pneumatic air tools
         and industrial clamps throughout the United States,  and as a processor
         and distributor of agricultural seeds in the United States.

2.       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         Generally accepted accounting principles

         These   consolidated   financial   statements  have  been  prepared  in
         accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles of the United
         States of America,  which are not  materially  different from generally
         accepted accounting principles utilized in Canada.

         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,  2001.  The  results of  operations  for the
         period ended  February 28, 2002 are not  necessarily  indicative of the
         results to be expected for the year ending August 31, 2002.

         Principles of consolidation

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

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

         Estimates

         The  preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally
         accepted  accounting  principles  requires 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.

         Revenue recognition

         The  Company  recognizes  revenue  from the  sales of  building  supply
         products  and tools,  when the  products  are shipped and the  ultimate
         collection  is  reasonably  assured.  Revenue from the  Company's  seed
         operations is generated by the provision of seed  processing,  handling
         and storage services provided to seed growers, and by the sales of seed
         products.  Revenue from the provision of these services and products is
         recognized  when the services have been performed and products sold and
         collection of the amounts is reasonably assured.

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


         Currency

         These  financial  statements  are  expressed  in  U.S.  dollars  as the
         Company's  operations are based predominately in the United States. Any
         amounts expressed in Canadian dollars are indicated as such.


         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,  using the  average  cost
         method and net realizable value.


         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
             Buildings                                    5-30 years


         Foreign exchange

         The Company's  functional currency for all operations  worldwide is the
         U.S.  dollar.  Nonmonetary  assets and  liabilities  are  translated at
         historical  rates and monetary assets and liabilities are translated at
         exchange  rates in  effect  at the end of the  year.  Income  statement
         accounts are translated at average rates for the year. Gains and losses
         from  translation of foreign  currency  financial  statements into U.S.
         dollars are included in current results of operations. Gains and losses
         resulting  from  foreign  currency  translations  are also  included in
         current results of operations.


         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.

         Employee stock option plan

         Financial  Accounting Standards Board statement No. 123 (Accounting for
         Stock-Based Compensation) encourages,  but does not require,  companies
         to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans
         based on the fair value of options granted.  The Company has elected to
         continue to account for  stock-based  compensation  using the intrinsic
         value method  prescribed in Accounting  Principles Board Opinion No. 25
         (Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees) and related  interpretations
         and to provide  additional  disclosures  with respect to the  pro-forma
         effects of adoption had the Company  recorded  compensation  expense as
         provided in SFAS 123.

         In  accordance  with APB-25,  compensation  costs for stock  options is
         recognized in income based on the excess,  if any, of the quoted market
         price of the stock at the grant date of the award or other  measurement
         date  over the  amount  an  employee  must pay to  acquire  the  stock.
         Generally,  the exercise  price for stock options  granted to employees
         equals or exceeds the fair market value of the  Company's  common stock
         at  the  date  of  grant,   thereby  resulting  in  no  recognition  of
         compensation expense by the Company.

         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".

         Financial instruments

         The Company uses the following  methods and assumptions to estimate the
         fair  value of each  class of  financial  instruments  for  which it is
         practicable to estimate such values:

         Financial instruments (cont'd...)

         Cash and short-term investments

         The carrying amount  approximates  fair value because of the short-term
         maturity of those instruments.

         Accounts receivable

         The carrying value of accounts  receivable  approximates fair value due
         to the short-term nature and historical collectability.

         Bank indebtedness

         The  carrying  amount  approximates  fair  value due to the  short-term
         nature of the obligation.

         Accounts payable

         The carrying value of accounts payable  approximates  fair value due to
         the short-term nature of the obligations.  The estimated fair values of

         Accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities

         Effective   August  31,  2000,  the  Company   adopted  SFAS  No.  133,
         "Accounting  for Derivative  Instruments  and Hedging  Activities,"  as
         amended. This statement requires companies to record derivatives on the
         balance sheet as assets or liabilities at their fair value.  In certain
         circumstances, changes in the value of such derivatives may be required
         to be recorded as gains or losses. The impact of this statement did not
         have  a  material  effect  on  the  Company's   consolidated  financial
         statements.

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

         Income taxes

         Income taxes are provided in accordance with SFAS No. 109,  "Accounting
         for Income  Taxes".  A deferred  tax asset or liability is recorded for
         all temporary  differences  between financial and tax reporting and net
         operating loss  carryforwards.  Deferred tax expense  (benefit) results
         from  the net  change  during  the  year of  deferred  tax  assets  and
         liabilities.

         Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation  allowance  when, in the
         opinion of management,  it is more likely than not that some portion or
         all of the  deferred  tax assets  will not be  realized.  Deferred  tax
         assets and  liabilities  are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax
         laws and rates on the date of enactment.

         Recent accounting pronouncements

         Effective June 1, 2001, the Company adopted the SEC's Staff  Accounting
         Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial  Statements," ("SAB
         101"). SAB 101 provides guidance related to revenue recognition.

         In July 2001,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 141,  "Business  Combinations",
         and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible  Assets." SFAS No. 141
         requires that the purchase  method of accounting be used for all future
         business  combinations  and specifies  criteria that intangible  assets
         acquired  in a  business  combination  must meet to be  recognized  and
         reported apart from  goodwill.  SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and
         intangible  assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized,
         but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance  with
         the  provisions  of SFAS No. 142.  SFAS No. 142 will also  require that
         intangible  assets with estimable  useful lives be amortized over their
         respective  estimated  useful  lives,  and reviewed for  impairment  in
         accordance with SFAS No. 121. The Company has adopted the provisions of
         SFAS 141 and SFAS 142 as of July 1, 2001.

         In July  2001,  the  FASB  issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
         Standards  No.  143  ("SFAS  143")  "Accounting  for  Asset  Retirement
         Obligations"  that records the fair value of the  liability for closure
         and removal costs associated with the legal obligations upon retirement
         or removal of any tangible  long-lived assets. The initial  recognition
         of the  liability  will be  capitalized  as part of the asset  cost and
         depreciated  over its estimated useful life. SFAS 143 is required to be
         adopted effective January 1, 2003.

         In August  2001,  the FASB issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
         Standards  No. 144  ("SFAS  144")  "Accounting  for the  Impairment  or
         Disposal of Long-Lived  Assets" that supersedes  Statement of Financial
         Accounting Standards No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal
         of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." SFAS
         144 is required to be adopted effective January 1, 2002.

         The  adoption  of these new  pronouncements  is not  expected to have a
         material  effect on the  Company's  financial  position  or  results of
         operations.



3.       BUSINESS COMBINATION AND ACQUISITION

         During the year ended August 31, 2001, the Company  acquired all of the

5.       CAPITAL  ASSETS (cont'd...)


         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.

6.       DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

         Deferred income taxes of $184,300  (August 31, 2001 - $207,300)  relate
         principally  to  timing  differences  between  the  accounting  and tax
         treatment of income, expenses, reserves and depreciation.

7.       BANK INDEBTEDNESS

==============================================================================

                                                February 28,       August 31,
                                                        2002             2001
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Demand loan                                  $       941,276  $       297,960
==============================================================================

         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.

8.       CAPITAL STOCK

         Holders of common  stock are  entitled to one vote for each share held.
         There are no  restrictions  that  limit the  Company's  ability  to pay
         dividends  on its  common  stock.  The  Company  has not  declared  any
         dividends since incorporation.

         Treasury stock

         Treasury  stock is recorded at cost.  During the periods ended February
         28, 2002 and 2001,  the Company  repurchased  20,000 and 28,500 shares,
         respectively,   at  an  aggregate   cost  of  $139,601  and   $125,177,
         respectively.

9.       EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

         The Company  sponsors 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.  The Company accounts for
         its  ESOP  in  accordance  with  SOP-93-6  (Employers'  Accounting  for
         Employee  Stock  Ownership  Plans).  The Company  records  compensation
         expense  equal to the market  price of the shares  acquired on the open
         market.  Any  dividends  on  allocated  ESOP  shares are  recorded as a
         reduction of retained earnings.

10.      STOCK OPTIONS

         Stock options

         The  Company  has a stock  option  plan under  which  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.

         Proceeds  received by the Company  from  exercise of stock  options are
         credited to capital stock.

         At February 28, 2002, employee incentive stock options were outstanding
         enabling the holders to acquire the following number of shares:

         The Company has  elected to follow APB Opinion No. 25  (Accounting  for
         Stock  Issued  to  Employees)  in  accounting  for its  employee  stock
         options.  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.  Stock  based  compensation
         recognized  during the period ended February 28, 2002 was $20,340 (2001
         - $Nil).  This amount was  allocated to wages and employee  benefits in
         the accompanying statement of operations. If under Financial Accounting
         Standards   Board   Statement  No.  123   (Accounting  for  Stock-Based
         Compensation) the Company  determined  compensation  costs based on the
         fair value at the grant date for its stock  options,  net  earnings and
         earnings per share would have been reduced to the  following  pro-forma

10.      STOCK  OPTIONS (cont'd...)

         The weighted  average  estimated  fair value of stock  options  granted
         during the periods  ended  February 28, 2002 and 2001 were Cdn$3.98 and
         $Nil per share,  respectively.  These amounts were determined using the
         Black-Scholes  option pricing model,  which values options based on the
         stock price at the grant date,  the  expected  life of the option,  the
         estimated volatility of the stock, the expected dividend payments,  and
         the risk-free  interest rate over the expected life of the option.  The
         assumptions used in the  Black-Scholes  model were as follows for stock
         options granted:

===========================================================================

                                                February 28,  February 28,
                                                        2002          2001
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Risk-free interest rate                                  3%          -
Expected life of the options                        2 years          -
Expected volatility                                  41.62%          -
Expected dividend yield                                  -           -
===========================================================================

         The  Black-Scholes  option valuation model was developed for estimating
         the fair value of traded options that have no vesting  restrictions and
         are fully transferable. Because option valuation models require the use
         of subjective assumptions,  changes in these assumptions can materially
         affect the fair value of the options,  and the Company's options do not
         have the  characteristics  of traded options,  so the option  valuation
         models do not necessarily  provide a reliable measure of the fair value
         of its options.


11.      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,  2002 and 2001 and  August 31,  2001,  90,000 of these
            shares  were earned by the  employees  under this plan but remain in
            the trust (Note 9).

         b) At  February  28,  2002 and 2001,  the  Company  had an  un-utilized
            line-of-credit   of   approximately   $3,700,000   and   $1,900,000,
            respectively.


12.      SEGMENTED INFORMATION

         The Company has three principal operating segments: the sales of lumber
         and  building  materials  to home  improvement  centres  in the  United
         States;  the sale of pneumatic air tools and  industrial  clamps in the
         United States;  and the processing and sales of  agricultural  seeds in
         the United States.  These operating  segments were determined  based on
         the nature of the products offered.  Operating  segments are defined as
         components of an enterprise about which separate financial  information
         is available  that is  evaluated  regularly in deciding how to allocate
         resources  and  in  assessing   performance.   The  Company   evaluates
         performance  based on several factors,  of which the primary  financial
         measure is business  segment income before taxes.  The following tables
         show the operations of the Company's reportable segments.

13.      CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK


         Financial   instruments  that   potentially   subject  the  Company  to
         concentrations  of  credit  risk  consist  primarily  of cash  and cash
         equivalents  and accounts  receivable.  The Company places its cash and
         cash  equivalents with high quality  financial  institutions and limits
         the amount of credit exposure with any one institution. The Company has
         concentrations  of credit risk with respect to accounts  receivable  as
         large   amounts   of   its   accounts   receivable   are   concentrated
         geographically   in  the  United  States  amongst  a  small  number  of
         customers.  At February 28, 2002, two customers  totalling $573,340 and
         $143,928 and at February 28, 2001, four customers  totalling  $501,379,
         $1,372,537, $243,010 and $231,733, respectively, accounted for accounts
         receivable greater than 10% of total accounts  receivable.  The Company
         controls  credit risk through  credit  approvals,  credit  limits,  and
         monitoring  procedures.  The Company performs credit evaluations of its
         commercial  customers  but  generally  does not require  collateral  to
         support accounts receivable.

15.      SUBSEQUENT EVENT

         On March 1, 2002 the Company  entered into an agreement  with Greenwood
         Forest  Products,  Inc.  ("Greenwood")  to  acquire  certain  assets of
         Greenwood.  The assets being  acquired  consist of nearly $7 million of
         inventory,  purchased in seven installments over the next two years for
         a price equal to the seller's cost plus 2%; furnishings,  equipment and
         supplies for $260,000  payable at closing;  and a license to use all of
         the  intangible  assets of the  seller  for a five year  term,  with an
         option to  purchase  the  intangible  assets  for a  nominal  amount of
         $1,000, payable at closing.

         Greenwood  is  in  the  business  of  processing  and  distribution  of
         industrial wood and other specialty building  products,  principally to
         original equipment manufacturers.

and  Jewett-Cameron  Lumber  Corporation,  an  Oregon  corporation,  of  3275 NW
Hillcrest, North Plains, Oregon 97133 (herein referred to as "Jewett-Cameron").

                                    Recitals

         A. Greenwood owns and operates a business  which  purchases,  processes

useful or convenient to the operation of the business.
         B. Greenwood  maintains its inventory at many locations  throughout the
country in order to allow for prompt deliveries to its customers, and is willing
to  stage  the sale of its  inventory  to a  purchaser  of the  business  over a
two-year period to assist in the financing of the purchase of the business.
         C.  Jewett-Cameron  is  engaged  in  business  as  a  manufacturer  and
wholesale  distributor  of lumber and other  building  materials  and desires to
acquire the business of Greenwood.
         D.  Greenwood  is willing to sell the  business  and certain  assets to
Jewett-Cameron  and  Jewett-Cameron is willing to purchase the business and such
assets on the terms provided herein.
           Now therefore,
                                    Agreement
         For and in  consideration  of the mutual  promises set forth herein the
parties agree as follows:
         1. ACQUISITION TRANSACTION.
                  1.1. Sale of Equipment and Supplies.  Greenwood agrees to sell
to Jewett-Cameron and  Jewett-Cameron  agrees to purchase from Greenwood certain
leasehold improvements,  furniture, equipment and supplies as more fully set out
in Schedule 1,  attached to this  agreement and by this  reference  incorporated
herein, for the sum of $260,000 payable in good funds at closing. The conveyance
shall be by Bill of Sale,  in the  form  attached  hereto  as  Exhibit  A, to be
executed by Greenwood and delivered to Jewett-Cameron at closing.
<PAGE>
                  1.2. Assignment of Lease. Greenwood agrees to assign the lease
of the premises  located at Suite 200, 15895 SW 72nd Avenue,  Portland,  Oregon,
where the  business is  principally  conducted,  to  Jewett-Cameron  at closing.
Jewett-Cameron  agrees  to fully  perform  the lease in every  material  respect
including  the timely  payment of rent and to hold  Greenwood  harmless from any
loss or expense on account of any failure by  Jewett-Cameron  or its assignee to
fully perform all of the material  obligations under the lease. An assignment of
the lease in the form  attached  hereto  as  Exhibit  B,  shall be  executed  by
Greenwood and delivered to Jewett-Cameron at the closing.
                  1.3. License of Intellectual Property with Option to Purchase.
Greenwood  agrees  to  grant  a  license  to  Jewett-Cameron  to use  all of the
intellectual  property  owned by  Greenwood  and useful to its  business as more
fully set out in Schedule 2, attached to this  agreement  and by this  reference
incorporated herein, for a period of two years from closing for $1,000,  payable
in advance at closing,  with an option to purchase all of such rights at the end
of the  license  term for  $100,  provided  that  Jewett-Cameron  is not then in
material default under this agreement.  The purchase price shall be payable upon
delivery by Greenwood of an  assignment  of such rights to  Jewett-Cameron.  The
license  shall be in the form  attached  hereto as Exhibit C, to be  executed by
Greenwood and delivered to Jewett-Cameron at closing.
                  1.4.  Purchase of  Inventories.  Greenwood  agrees to sell and
Jewett-Cameron agrees to purchase Greenwood's inventories,  work in process, raw
materials and packaging (except the portions which are unusable as agreed by the
parties prior to transfer) in stages over a two year period  following  closing,
for a price equal to Greenwood's cost (including transportation,  processing and

responsibility   of   Greenwood.   Greenwood   agrees  to  indemnify   and  hold

events which  occurred  prior to the  closing,  which  indemnification  is to be
complete, and include all reasonable costs.

claims resulting from its operation of the business being acquired,  or from its
use of "Greenwood" or other trade name, which indemnification is to be complete,
and  include  all  reasonable   costs.  The  use  of  the  name  "Greenwood"  by
Jewett-Cameron  shall  not  create  any  joint  venture,  partnership,  or other
liability  sharing  arrangement  between the parties except as set forth in this
agreement.
                   1.8.  Closing.  The closing  shall take place on February 28,
