Where It All Began…
BUILT ON FAMILY, GROWN WITH PURPOSE.
Southern Irrigation began in the back of a pickup truck when Bert Oostenbrink introduced dripline to farmers in Southern Alberta, before settling in Chilliwack, BC. Today, it remains family- and employee-owned, led by his four sons and a dedicated team of over 150 people—still holding the heart of a family business.
