Speaking from Experience

One of our poultry farm clients – Ray Nickel from Vye Road Ventures and Crossborder Poultry – is featured in this article in Canadian Poultry Magazine about bio-security on poultry farms in BC.  Denbow’s staff are careful to follow proper bio-security protocols as we deliver and install sawdust at multiple poultry farms each day.

Clayburn Village Project Profile

The City of Abbotsford has an Integrated Stormwater Management Plan (ISMP) for the 2.5 hectare Clayburn Creek watershed. Flooding from Clayburn Creek is a problem in the lowland areas including Clayburn Village.  The City contracted Denbow to supply and install an EnviroDyke as an green option to assist with flooding.  Check out the project profile for more info and photos:

Fall is a great time to seed

2013/09/03

Fall is coming soon to the Fraser Valley… and it’s a great time to seed.  The cool nights and mild, shorter days provide the ideal conditions for seed germination. Seed is better able to retain moisture in these conditions and seedlings will thrive without the extreme heat that occurs in the summer months.
