Hanson Valley Sod is a division of Don and Kathy
Hanson's well diversified
North Dakota farm.
The family farm has been in operation in the
Hillsboro, ND
community for three generations. Until recently, the major farm
operation has consisted
of growing wheat, barley, sugar beets, soybeans and corn.
In the spring of 2000, we seeded our first field of grass for sod.
Because the growth was good, we made our first small scale harvest in the spring of 2001.
We continued at a
small scale into 2003. The sod harvested the first two years was
cut by a small roll harvester.
In the spring of 2003, we realized the need to switch to long rolls,
commonly referred to
as big rolls. This change has meant a better harvested product,
giving a finer finished lawn,
without the extra seams
and labor.
Throughout the 2004 season, we saw a continued increase in sales.
This was made
possible by the use of our large rolls of high quality sod.
Equipment is available for use
or rent to install these rolls.
For the 2005 season, we are again ready to supply top quality sod.
This sod is 2 years old,
and is a blend of up to 4 quality blue grass varieties.
Currently, nearly 100 acres of grass are being cared for.
Transportation of this quality sod is handled by Hanson Valley Sod's own
over the road trucks.
When needed, we have access to additional trucks.
We hope this year and future years to be your professional sod supplier,
giving you quality product,
with on time delivery that you deserve. |
