Curt Garland has been working in the forest industry throughout our region since he was 15 years old at Eagle Lake Sawmill in Giscome. A hard-working young man with an entrepreneur spirit he had a number of businesses in the early years. He started his first business, Eastern Transport, at the age of 18 in 1955, after trading in his car on a 1955 Ford F750.
He hauled general freight on Highway 16 east from Prince George to Sinclair Mills. Other businesses he formed or bought over the years were Garland Contracting; C & R Contracting; Mackenzie Redi-Mix, Tackama Forest Products; Lomak of course; and the most recent purchase in 2004 was Hester Creek Winery in Oliver.
