PRICING & SERVICES
Consulting Services
I strive to understand your context first to help you better. That means getting to know your operation and your needs to develop a plan that will work for you. I do not sell any products, and I work independently of systems that others have created. Nor are you locked in for a long-term commitment. Once the plan is created, I leave it up to you to implement it on your own, hire a different company, or retain me for additional help in the future.

Consulting Packages
$1000
Pasture/Range Assessment
Pastures are places where mystery plants pop up, and sometimes, they’re head-scratchers in what they are and whether they will hurt or benefit your land and your animals. Assessments also include plant residue levels and weed and woody plant management advice.
My package includes one physical pasture assessment (available for clients within 200 km of Forestburg, AB), a report on plant species identified, and any issues and suggested improvements for your pasture.
The best time for most assessments is between May and August.
Price is subject to change depending on how large (or small) an area is to be assessed. Contact me for more.

Q&A
Not sure where to begin? Do you need a second opinion on someone else’s suggestion or recommendation? Or perhaps you need someone to bounce ideas off of because you’re still unsure if you’re going down the right path.
That’s okay. I can provide answers to your questions.
My package includes one meeting either in person (within 200 km of Forestburg, AB) or online, plus support through email, telephone, or text over a 3-month period.
This is ideal for seasonal support or planning over the winter months.
Upgrade to other plans for the difference in cost anytime you wish.
$4000
Farm Planning
This is where I get to know your operation, your goals, and your current situation. You can provide as little or as much information and data as possible. Do not worry about being organized because, between you, me and the fence post, we’ll get it sorted out.
This package includes at least three meetings either in person (within 200 km of Forestburg, AB) or online, plus support through email, phone or text over a 12-month period.
Fall is a great time to start with new clients so that plans can be worked on over the winter. The summer is best for implementing and fine-tuning them.
$2500
Annual Retainment
While I would love to continue working with you annually, you’re not obligated to hire me for any long-term contractual services. It’s entirely up to you if you wish to hire me regularly.
My package includes at least three meetings either in person (within 200 km of Forestburg, AB) or online, plus support through email, phone or text over a 12-month period.
This is ideal for existing clients who wish to have support for their farm on an annual basis or need a resource throughout without so much upfront work.

GOVERNMENT applications
Paperwork for Funding
The two primary programs I work with are OFCAF and S-CAP. My fees can be added to most applications as part of developing your BMPs for application approvals. The current Q&A package applies as a minimum for most applications. Fees may be higher if there are more complex applications we must work on.
