Walker Aggregates Inc.
Township of Severn
Prioritizing the Community
Community relations are a daily priority for the team at Severn Quarry. Beyond leveraging technology and industry best practices to reduce the impact of its operations, the Walker Aggregates site supports its neighbours in Severn Township and the surrounding region. In 2020, the quarry made donations to multiple food banks to provide additional support during the COVID pandemic
A good host
Severn Quarry also hosts several groups and events at its site. These include educational tours for Georgian College students and a holiday PLC wine and cheese reception and summer barbecue – both of which were impacted in 2020 by the COVID pandemic. Outside of these events, the team stays in touch with its neighbours through biannual newsletters and personal visits.
