The tray has three slats along the bottom with a small gap between each slat.; The side of the tray are very worn and weathered with a white haze.; Included with the tray are 6 thin strips of wood, almost like wood veneer, that are scored at intervals in order to form a wood plant pot.

Heritage Burnaby has a number of photos and an oral history about the family.; Used before plastic trays were used more regularly in the 1970s. In the 1970s, the business shifted to selling wholesale bedding plants so the plastic trays were more practical to give away. The wooden trays and pots were taken out to fields for transplanting and cleaned and reused regularly. The donors recall repairing these wooden trays over the winter months.
