Item 2.01

     Disposition of Assets


On December 2, 2005, Jewett-Cameron sold its distribution facility located in Ogden, Utah. The facility was purchased by Core-Tech Inc. of Sandy, Utah. Net proceeds from the transaction were $652,914.88.


As a by-product of increased transportation costs, Jewett-Cameron’s customers have moved toward re-distributing products through their own distribution center networks, where possible. Jewett-Cameron has encouraged this trend through pricing incentives and no longer needs to depend on its Ogden, Utah distribution center.





Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereto duly authorized.


Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd.
