Ranch legacy valued in Vernon

LETTER: Grand job on agricultural park improvements at BX Ranch

Recently, I enjoyed the BX Trail that begins at the East Vernon Road parking lot and meanders along the border of the BX Ranch.

What an awesome sight!

The fields of grasses have been cut, raked, and baled – “round bales” orderly stacked like huge dry green cylinders under shed cover.

The BX Ranchlands is thriving – a legacy for Vernon - a spectacular sight in the centre of a 2024 fast-paced growing metropolis.

Near the entrance to the farmlands is a new sign: Agricultural Park Improvements – evidence that the RDNO proposed design for the 137-acre property is unfolding under the wise direction and expertise of consultant/contractor and their team.

What a grand job! What a beautiful contribution to our community!
