Emergency Livestock Support Services

Your Partner in Times of Crisis

Welcome to Lentelus Farms, the trusted ally of small to medium-sized livestock farmers in Kelowna and surrounding areas. Our commitment is to ensure your farm's sustainability and food security during natural disasters and other emergencies.

Who We Are

With a history of supporting hundreds of farmers across the region, we specialize in serving small and medium-sized livestock producers. Unlike larger facilities focused on a few major operations, we are uniquely equipped to assist numerous smaller farms simultaneously, providing essential services when they're needed most.

    • Large stock trailer (2025 Wilson 20ft double deck gooseneck) and portable livestock panels to transport and house livestock securely.

    • Access to grazing land on our property and neighboring areas for temporary housing.

  2. Composting and Waste Management

    • A dedicated composting facility for safe and efficient deadstock disposal.

    • On-site euthanasia and processing to ensure humane and hygienic handling.

  3. Processing and Storage Solutions

    • Expanded freezer capacity for increased food security and supply chain resilience.

    • Refrigerated Transport (2024 Sprinter cargo van with refrigeration Unit)

    • Separate poultry processing line for potentially infected poultry, reducing risk to larger facilities.
