Mercer Celgar is looking for landowners with 2 or more acres within 55 km that would benefit from using their Celgrow soil amendment. Pastures and hay fields are good options. Mercer Celgar will cover the costs of a Qualified Professional performing soil sampling, obtaining government authorization and delivery costs of Celgrow soil amendment based on access with a large truck/pup combination. Acreage should be able to accommodate at least 6 truck/pup loads. The two major components of Celgrow are individual wood fibres lost from the pulping process and surplus bacteria from the wastewater biological treatment facility. Wood fibres enhance soil moisture retention and bacteria are a good source of soil nutrients. The landowner is responsible for spreading and incorporating Celgrow into their soil.

Time Some days yesterday Never happened I wander blissful For a moment, forgetful Then reality looms, Like grey clouds Dimming the world With sadness And some days, bird song Lifts me up and mends A broken heart. ~ Poet: Norma Moll, Vernon, BC ❤❤ NELSON Baron is a very loving but very large 2 year old neutered male. He likes his food a little too much and will need a restricted diet to lose a few pounds. He loves boxes to play, likes being groomed and loves attention. Baron is an excellent mouser and has caught a few to show his love to us. His only dislikes are dogs. If he sounds like the companion for you please contact us.
