Farming Craftsmanship
Agriculture is a part of Southern Vancouver Island; it’s part of our history and community. Growing up in the farming community and raising livestock ourselves has allowed us to form a diverse knowledge of husbandry requirements for Livestock. We understand the importance of proper drainage and footing construction to keep your riding rings, paddocks and livestock areas dry and free of health impacts.
Footing construction is more than placing gravel; it determines the longevity of your paddocks and riding rings and the health impacts on your animals. Improper construction can lead to unusable space and impact your animal’s well-being.
Drainage and grading livestock pens, riding rings, and paddocks can overwhelm upkeep if correctly installed and managed. We pride ourselves on understanding proper drainage construction and grading to minimize standing water and poor surfacing, which can adversely affect all livestock.
