Backwoods Projects
Backwoods Resources has had the opportunity to be an asset in many different programs and projects over the years. We have and continue to help develop long term successful management strategies for annual vegetation control for companies of all sizes in industrial and forestry sectors. We also have taken part in world renowned projects by providing our quality services to maintain respect and care for the environment.
Some of the projects and companies we have had the pleasure of working with, but not limited to, can include: Trans Mountain (TMEP, TMPL, TMX), Canadian Natural Resources Limited (CNRL), Tourmaline Oil Corp., Cenovus Energy, Parks Canada, and Wolf Midstream. We also have incredible partnerships with Enoch Construction Ltd.
During our growth as a company, we have been presented with many different opportunities. This can include anything from taking on new contracts in remote/unknown areas and using helicopters to shuttle equipment/personnel to expanding into different spraying sectors, like forestry and environmental, and collaborating with multiple different partners on complex projects. We are open to new challenges and willing to work with our clients to find the best solution to their problems.

“Spray and mowing jobs were always completed in a timely manner with desired results. The crews followed all of CNRL's safety policies and procedures perfectly, there were no incidents, and all potential hazards were identified or mitigated prior to starting work. Satisfactory audits were completed by the AER after Backwoods Resources performed weed control at our sites.”

“Backwoods management and operations have been a great company to work with in achieving the highest level of vegetation control. They are very organized and strive everyday during the season to give the highest quality work possible. At the start of the working relationship, it was decided that communication is key in developing positive outcomes throughout the season and was taken very seriously by both sides. Being an environmental based company, they set safety and the well fair of the environment as a top priority which aligns well with our own companies’ values and expectations. I look forward to continuing our partnership in the future!”
