Camrose County, Alberta, is looking for businesses to provide new farm equipment for the 2026 season. Local suppliers and contractors have until March 6, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. to submit their bids to the county. This new machinery will help the community with important tasks like controlling weeds and pests on public land.
The Agriculture Services Department will manage the new equipment once it is delivered. These machines are also used for the local rental program, which gives farmers access to specialized tools like mowers and seed-cleaning gear. Keeping the fleet updated ensures that these services remain reliable for residents throughout the spring and summer months.
This purchase is part of a larger plan set by the Camrose County Council, which approved a $44.3 million operating budget late last year. Along with the new equipment, the county introduced updated fees for seed cleaning and other agricultural contracted services that went into effect on January 1, 2026. These changes help cover the costs of maintaining the tools used by the community.
In addition to the farm gear, the county is currently seeking bids for other construction projects. These include a new building for the Agriculture department and an addition to the maintenance shop at the West Dried Meat Lake Regional Landfill. These projects are part of the county’s ongoing efforts to maintain local infrastructure and improve service delivery for all residents.
