Experts agree that perennials like switchgrass and big bluestem are the best biomass crops, since you can reap up to 20 years’ worth of crops from a single planting.
On July 1st, the Bath plant participated in the annual Canada Day celebrations in Bath, Ontario. This year, our contingent in the Parade included a large group of plant employees and their fami-lies. Lafarge's Aggregates and Concrete division joined in as well, bringing a ready-mix truck to join in the Parade. Festivities concluded later that evening with a fireworks display, sponsored by Lafarge.
The Bath area was first settled in 1784 as a home for United Empire Loyalists. The Village was incorporated in 1859. This year marked the 51st Annual Canada Day Parade.
