We are very happy to be part of such a progressive sale in the heart of the Peace Country where buyers have access to both top end yearlings and age advantage bulls all in one building. We would also like to thank all of our past customers for their support and confidence in our program. Without you we wouldn’t be able to follow our passion in rais- ing quality Purebred Simmentals. This year’s offering is extremely strong and uniform, a great sign of the direction our cow herd is progressing towards. The lead off bulls from our MRL Matrix herd sire are something special. He has been a breed changer for us with the amount of substance and soundness he puts into his offspring. Not to mention he is an outcross from almost all Red genetics anywhere offered in the Peace Country. Much like Matrix himself, turn his sons out with a big group of cows and watch what they can do! We follow up with a strong offering of Black and Fullbloods as well that are sired from proven bulls we have successfully marketed in the past years. We look forward to seeing everybody at the farm before the sale and/or sale day. Make sure to enjoy our sale meal and hospitality. All bulls are semen checked and guaranteed. We will make sure your cows get bred. Feel free to give Dad or myself a shout on any of the bulls.

    The Fish Rapper Beaverlodge United Church November2020 “Come on in, the gates of holiness are open wide! “Our doors are open! Regular Sunday services began on September 13 at Beaverlodge and Wembley United Churches, with appropriate physical distancing and infection prevention protocols in place. It is so great to have our homes of worship available to us again. Thanks to all who have worked so hard to make sure we have met all requirements of reopening. We’d love to see you in person on a Sunday morning. As you know, the fall is generally an extremely busy time for us. This year things Judy Bremner welcomes are very different. Both the Roast Beef Dinner and Bethlehem Market are all to BUC cancelled because of current Covid-19 restrictions. At this time, plans are being made for a Service of Nine Lessons and Carols. Again, it will be very different from what we are used to. The Service of Nine Lessons is always the start of the Christmas season for me. There is such joy and excitement. Seeing friends and neighbours, singing the hymns and listening to the stories that honour the reason for this celebration just make my heart happy. Coming out to see the stars shining. There is just something truly magical and joyful to this evening. December 6th is the Service of Nine Lessons and Carols. It will be hosted by the Beaverlodge Alliance Church at 7PM with no in person attendance. There are two ways for us to see the service. First, local churches including Beaverlodge United will be open to present a screening of the service as it takes place.

  • Beaverlodge Riparian Conservation
    Alberta Conservation Association 2013/14 Project Summary Report Project Name: Beaverlodge Riparian Conservation Land Management Program Manager: Darren Dorge Project Leader: Ed Kolodychuk Primary ACA staff on project: Melissa Buskas, Ed Kolodychuk, Lenore Stone and Jennifer Straub Partnerships ConocoPhillips County of Grande Prairie Cows and Fish Penn West West County Watershed Society Key Findings • Completed two riparian health inventories. • Completed six short-form riparian health assessments. • Completed bi-annual water sampling; results showed several parameters exceeded recommended water quality guidelines. • Local, landowner-driven West County Watershed Society continues to lead the identification of future project sites and activities. Introduction A survey completed in 2002 documented riparian habitat degradation along the Beaverlodge River and two of its tributaries, Beavertail and Steeprock creeks (Hallett 2003). Degraded riparian habitat is primarily attributed to livestock grazing, watering, feedlot operations, vehicle fording, land clearing and instream alterations. Since 2004, Alberta Conservation Association (ACA), in partnership with landowners, provincial and municipal governments, and other conservation groups, has delivered riparian restoration and conservation projects along these watercourses, including streambank fencing, alternative livestock watering systems and tree planting. In 2013/14, ACA continued to develop riparian protection and enhancement projects with landowners, monitor riparian health and water quality,

  • Beaverlodge River Drainage Conservation
    Alberta Conservation Association 2007/08 Project Summary Report Project Name: Beaverlodge River Drainage Conservation Project Leader: Tyler Johns Primary ACA staff on this project: John Hallett and Tyler Johns Partnerships: Grande Prairie Riparian Action Team consisting of Alberta Environment, Alberta Sustainable Resource Development, County of Grande Prairie, Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC), Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO); Beaverlodge Tree Nursery; Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration (PFRA); Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC); and EnCana (West County Watershed Group). Key Findings • Riparian restoration (or remediation) projects including stream bank fencing, off-site water development, and tree planting, were conducted at three sites. • One new property was inspected and scheduled for stream bank fencing in 2008. Inclusion of this property in the riparian conservation program is significant as the owner was initially skeptical of the program and rejected previous invitations to participate. • New partnerships were established with the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) and Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC). • The demonstration tour was effective in communicating the riparian problems and solutions to participants. Introduction In a 2002 survey, severe riparian habitat degradation was documented for the Beaverlodge River and two of its tributaries, Beavertail and Steeprock Creeks (Hallett 2003). Human-related activities such as bank-side livestock feeding and watering, vehicle fording, and in-stream alterations, such as channel straightening and dugout construction, have degraded riparian zones of these watercourses. A once thriving Arctic grayling fishery has disappeared (Lucko 1995, 1993; Schroeder 1992). Since 2004, the Beaverlodge Drainage Riparian Program (BDRP), in partnerships with landowners, provincial and municipal government, and other conservation organizations have embarked on riparian restoration and conservation projects along these water courses.
