Nor’west Sod Ltd. started in 1986 with a 22 horsepower tractor and a borrowed 3-wheel bike. At the time, very little was known about growing sod on peat bog in Newfoundland. Due to the complexity of peat bogs, it required a lot of trial-and-error process to bring them to sufficient production levels. Initially, Nor’west Sod Ltd. had a PTO (Permit to Occupy) on 5 acres in Winterland on the Burin Peninsula. Eventually, a lot of the bugs got ironed out (not all – some are still being worked on), and the company was incorporated in 1993. Nor’west Sod Ltd. is today a sole proprietorship with one stockholder. We have approximately 150 acres of bluegrass sod in production at two locations – Winterland and Morley’s Siding. Our dedicated team includes 8 full-time seasonal employees and 2 to 4 part-time staff members. We can ship sod to anywhere in Newfoundland in a timely manner. Contact us for more information.
