It is already four weeks past the massive snowfall of Dec. 22, which blanketed the city with accumulations of from 20 to 40 centimetres of heavy, soupy snow that doesn’t seem to be going away anytime soon. It’s been tough on everyone, but there is one particular group that has been particularly disadvantaged. When roads…
We have been busy since the early morning hours of Dec. 22, when Calgarians woke to a massive snowfall that had dumped from 20 to 40 centimetres of the white stuff all over the city. Thousands were unable to leave their homes, and of the few who were able to get out and on the…
Albertans have been asked to limit their contact to other the people in their households over the holidays, which leaves many wondering what they are going to do … especially with their kids. Luckily, Calgary offers a plethora of winter outdoor activities. These are great for getting in some exercise, exploring the city and province,…
Last week we went over the many ways you can add holiday lights to your home to make the season a little extra special. Holiday lights can be strung, hung, and draped to highlight the best features of your property, and provide joy for those passing by your personal winter wonderland. During the longest and…
Twinkling lights, fragrant green wreaths, ribbons and bows ― all these generate that very special, once-a-year feeling of wonder and hope that is only associated with the holiday season.

More and more of our valued landscape construction clients have been inquiring about the potential to install an outdoor fireplace.

As we continue to stay home as much as possible, the…
Calgary isn’t Canada’s snowiest city, but we do get it all when it comes to weather. It’s not at all unusual for snow to fall at what seems to be moments after the end of August. It was sadly still technically summer when the infamous Snowtember incident happened in 2014. Temperatures plummeted and three days…
Calgarians are creative people when it comes to snow removal. In our three generations of snow removal services in southeast Calgary, we have seen snow and ice attacked in just about every way possible. A lot of them, we wouldn’t recommend. But the snow removal business requires a sense of humour – especially in this…
A snowfall warning on Oct. 23 came with a caution to expect accumulations of up to 20 centimetres, and by 8 p.m., 7 centimetres had already fallen. Thankfully, there wasn’t too much more, with heights reaching less than 10 centimetres in most areas, but there was still enough that it was a big job to…
Unfortunately, the weather forecast is unseasonably cold for the next couple weeks, but not so cold that we can’t celebrate Halloween. In addition to the cooler weather, the COVID-19 pandemic has thrown another bit of a monkey wrench into the regular festivities, but with a little bit of planning and creativity, there are many ways…
