When it comes to scheduling clinics for Amazing Horse Country, unpredictable Alberta weather has always been a hassle that owner Scott Phillips grapples with. But times have changed, thanks to the addition of two Remuda post frame buildings – a riding arena, and a custom barn.

The new spaces have not only alleviated the weather-related constraints, but have also helped Scott and his team keep their tack and equipment organized indoors.

Nestled on a sprawling 145-acres in the heart of central Alberta, not far from picturesque Crimson Lake Provincial Park, the Amazing Horse Country Ranch offers a breathtaking haven for horse enthusiasts. The ranch boasts an expansive network of riding trails, obstacles courses, an equestrian campground, and cozy cabins, making it an undeniably perfect setting for riders and their horses to participate in Scott’s clinics.

In the equine community, Amazing Horse Country has found a unique niche – a style of horse and people training called ‘relational horsemanship’, an approach that centres around fostering trusting relationships between riders and their horse.

Amazing Horse Country’ clinics and teachings are guided by the social nature of horses, which Scott compares to that of humans.

“If you think of it, our lives are defined by our relationships and how we interact with others. We have spouses, friends, employers, and have different relationships with everyone. Similarly, horses are very social, and their lives exist around relationships in the herd. Like people, they are all individuals with unique strengths, struggles, and roles. And we can capitalize on that. Horses have a clear understanding of leadership and followership. As prey animals, they also have inherent distrust and fears.”

“What we do is two-fold: give people practical knowledge and skills to be leaders of horses – to lead with clarity in the horses language, and to show horses how to manage pressures and become confident, proud, and precise followers. What’s great is that this approach works for every horse and every rider in every discipline.”

The recent additions of two post frame buildings by Remuda enhance the operational efficiency of Amazing Horse Country and extend the clinic season into winter months – a huge step in allowing Scott to pass his knowledge along to even more riders.

The riding arena has long been on Scott’s wish list. With the new, spacious Amazing Horse Country Ranch up and running, the time was right to cross it off. In the past, the clinic schedule was at the mercy of mother nature.

“If it was too hot, too rainy, too windy, or too cold, we’d either have to juggle the schedule or cancel the clinic outright, which we never like to do.”

Remuda knew that Scott’s dream riding arena needed to be comfortable for he and his clients to ride in all weather conditions. The building is fully insulated so that even on scorching 30 degree days, rainy days, or windy days, Amazing Horse Country has a dry, comfortable, and safe place to ride.

“The arena allows us to extend our clinic season by several months. October through March can be unpredictable for outdoor operation – ice and wind being the key concerns. But inside, we’re sheltered and have good footing for the horses.”

The post frame horse barn and workshop, another addition by Remuda, also plays a key role in keeping Amazing Horse Country operating through winter months. Not only does the pole barn provide a space to organize tractors, farm vehicles, saddles, and tack indoors, it’s the gathering point for the engaging classroom conversations that are part of every one of Scott’s clinics.

“The barn is also our distribution point for all utilities. Since we’re expanding our business to include winter months, we require water for horses and power to keep it from freezing.”

When asked why he would recommend Remuda, Scott points to several things.

“The speed at which the buildings were constructed without sacrificing quality. Being able to bounce ideas around. Being able to plan out the buildings the way we want them built. Being able to make changes or additions easily. Having a stamped set of engineered drawings to go through before project commencement. And of course, being able to sit down with Remuda in person to discuss the project and specifications.”

For the longest time, Warren kept his farm running while making do with a small, unheated shop and a cold storage shed.

During the cold winter weather, his three tractors were hard to start and his employees were unable to work comfortably. The limited space was also a concern.

Warren contacted Remuda about replacing his two small buildings with something better suited to his operation. His new bigger, heated shop – with six-inch concrete floors and built-in drains – is comfortable and productive for Warren’s farm year round.

“I had talked to a couple guys that used Remuda. I met Jon and then Steve, the owner, and they’re awesome guys. The crews came in and were efficient. I couldn’t believe how fast it went up. Everybody likes it. Nobody minds coming into the shop in the wintertime and taking their jackets off anymore – so my equipment is way better maintained and it lasts longer. I think it actually pays for itself faster than people would think.”

The Vankammen family dairy business has been operating in Alberta since 1982. By 2016, they had outgrown their loafing barn. One third of the herd ended up living outside, muddy an dirty, and increasingly unhappy. When they wanted shelter, it was standing room only.

Dwight spoke to Remuda about constructing a new building. He had a layout in mind, after researching pole barns in BC, Manitoba, and Alberta – and speaking to industry experts. Remuda offered the best in price, but also expressed confidence that they could get the building done within the tight timeline.

“All of our focus went to cow comfort. If the cow is happy, then the cow will last longer, live healthier, produce more milk, make the bottom line easier on us, but also the life of the cow is better.”

The barn roof and doors were reinforced to withstand storms. A leak-proof building and humidity control were essential, so Remuda installed vapour barrier, to deliver on that request. It was also important to the family that the new building matched the existing buildings in colour.

The cows moved into their new loafing barn in December 2017. The new building has stalls for 470 cows to live comfortably and make milk. Not long after, dairy production increased by 30%.

With an indoor horse riding arena, Sonja would no longer be at the mercy of weather forecasts to get her horses show-ready.

She could train them, and enjoy doing it, year-round. When Sonja started looking for a builder to construct an indoor riding arena, a family friend suggested that she take a look at the quality of Remuda’s work.

She discovered that Remuda had experience constructing post frame equine buildings in Alberta, and would be capable of using their expertise to provide customized solutions to all of her needs.

With the 80′ x 140′ riding arena and 12′ lean-to shelter for hay storage in place, Sonja wanted to add a matching barn with horse stalls. The barn design included insulated walls, a wash bay, and an oversized tack room.

“My favourite thing about our Remuda building is the tack room door in the barn. It is a revolving tack room door. In the morning we can just open it up and start working. At nighttime we can just close it up and it’s nice and clean. We never have bruised knuckles from going through a small door. Remuda did a phenomenal job with that door. It works easy. They even added an extra strip for the dust. It’s definitely the best part of this barn.”

Holly’s love of horses began during a childhood spent on the rodeo circuit, while the family business was renting horse trailers.

Today, her kids have inherited her passion for rodeo, and she runs the family business – which has expanded to renting stock trailers, livestock trailers, flat-deck trailers, and cargo trailers.

Remuda was hired to construct a riding arena for roping, barrel race practice, and working with horses. A second building to house an office and maintenance shop for the business was also needed. On Remuda’s recommendation, the height of the shop was raised and a large overhead door was installed. High windows were planned on the south side of the shop to maximize the natural light, and a darker roof was selected to quicken snowmelt. With a design in place, construction began.

“Remuda built our house, so when it came to the riding arena and shop, there really wasn’t any doubt who was going to build them. Their crews are all great to deal with and they clean up after construction. We were never afraid to ask any questions and they were always able to give you some sort of an answer. We have two family-owned businesses and Remuda is family-owned – it’s just nicer to deal with family versus corporate. ”

Tony knew that he wanted an L-shaped building that could fit his motorhome, and other vehicles, provide a place for maintenance, and act as the ultimate “man cave”.

He also knew he wanted a mezzanine level with an outdoor deck that would overlook Eagle Lake, and provide tremendous views.

After reviewing three post frame builders and speaking with previous customers of each, Tony hired Remuda to design and build his post frame shop. His Remuda Building Consultant advised him on the dimensions of the L-shaped building that would be the most economical, while giving him all of the purpose-built spaces he had described.

“It gives me a place to work or putz around with stuff, whether it’s winter or summer. It allows me the comfort of being able to do it whenever I want to. It was important that I get a deck in the mezzanine because I wanted to build the rooms underneath. Remuda was very accommodating. Everyone said that their crews were very, very good – and they were.”

Remuda had been growing steadily for years, when we decided to replace our own small shop with a post frame head office.

We needed a building that was able to house all of our office staff comfortably. And, like so many of our customers, we needed a heated indoor space where we could store and repair our equipment without worrying about the weather.

Drawing up our plans, we included two storeys for offices, a large meeting and design area for customers, and a front office area that demonstrated the architectural possibilities of post frame construction. In addition to a spacious yard for material storage, the building has a large warehouse that is now home to Remuda Supplies.

We found a piece of property just off highway 1 – which has proven much more convenient to find and visit than our original location. With dedicated spaces for everything we do, it’s much easier for us to plan, build, and serve our customers.

Before Jason could start growing and selling hay, he needed to make a major addition to his property.

He had plenty of land, but would need a building large enough to store the hay, and to shelter it from the elements. And if he was going to add a building, he also wanted one that could store and protect his farm equipment.

Jason contacted Remuda and began discussing post frame building possibilities with Peter, his local Building Consultant. They worked together, making adjustments that would be the most cost effective, while ensuring there would be bays at one end of the structure to store things other than hay.

With a solid plan in place, Remuda broke ground and the new building was delivered on schedule.

By 2018, True North had already spent several years in pre-production, getting their business ready for changes to Canada’s cannabis legislation.

To open and operate, they’d need several large buildings, including a shop, site office, a processing plant, and cold storage for product. In all, the facility includes four Remuda post frame buildings:

  • 100′ x 252′ x 24′
  • 72′ x 72′ x 20′
  • 54′ x 140′ x 20′
  • 72′ x 200′ x 18′

Remuda was hired to build the facilities, collaborating with True North on the design. They added a boiler system with in-floor heating, a cooling system for cold storage, an office area, and an exterior deck for workers to enjoy.

Today, True North runs its entire operations from the facility, built entirely with Remuda post frame buildings.

When Marvin moved out into the country, the first thing he wanted to do was build a garage where he could store his motorhome, do maintenance, and have a wash bay.

While researching builders, Marvin discovered Remuda. The company was fairly new but he had a good feeling about them.

“You know, it was definitely the people. I met with Remuda. They brought me the price – the rest emailed it to me – Remuda brought it. They weren’t the cheapest, but being in business all my life, I’m not the type of guy who takes the cheapest. I look at the quality of people that I’m dealing with and Remuda fit the bill.”

Rather than settle for a “big box” style building, Marvin worked with Remuda to design an L-shaped building that suited his needs, while keeping the different spaces open to each other. Concrete floors equipped with drains and in-floor heating were added as special requests.
