Bring in the Machines

Our dream big attitude has never been a hurdle for us, in fact, it’s a lot of the reason we are where we are. That doesn’t mean we haven’t faced our fair share of hurdles, like having a property that was a little overgrown and a little uneven for our facility…

With a little help from our friends, [😉] we were able to turn this:

Into this:

After removing quite a few trees from the property, trees that we will be replanting when our final footprint is in – don’t worry, filling in surrounding ditches, removing hills and generally leveling the land with LOADS of gravel, we were able to remove our storage bin and wait for our second portable to arrive.

Of course, setting up shop in the Cowichan Valley and building over the fall/winter months always means that there is the chance of snow… stopping everything for a few weeks.

But you know what, our dream big attitude got us through all these challenges and we were able to turn a small, seemingly challenging piece of land into the future of Black Fin Extracts.
