The feed mill idea began in 2018 when we placed our first flock of laying hens. Being an organic farm we were forced to ship feed from the Fraser Valley or Alberta which put us at high risk of losing feed supply. It also increased our cost of production significantly with increased transportation. We saw a great opportunity to not only utilize the organic grain crops we were producing on the farm but also to have increased control over the critically important nutrition of our hens. Construction completed in Nov 2020 after which we spent 6 months feeding our own flock, testing and improving our system with guidance from Poultry Partners (nutrition consultants). In April of 2021 we began commercial production of poultry and ruminant feed, supplying producers across BC's central interior and the Kootenays.
We have designed the mill, the ingredients, the process and storage for what we saw would benefit our production because we're farmer's too! We hope that our businesses can be a leader not only in animal health and production but also in a strong, sustainable and secure food system in BC!
