Why River Meadow Turf & Sod?

100% Grown Locally on Vancouver Island: Every roll of turf and sod that we sell is grown locally on our family-owned 125 acre farm in the Comox Valley. That means your turf will always be fresh and local right from our farm, while supporting your local community.

Cut To Order For Peak Freshness: All of our large turf and sod orders are ‘cut to order’ to ensure peak freshness when you receive it.

40+ Years Of Experience: We’ve been in business growing turf and sod on Vancouver Island for over 40 years, while continuing to innovate our growing and cutting process for the best results every single year.

Turf & Sod Pricing

Our cream of the crop Premium Turf & Sod grown on Vancouver Island is available for just $0.90 per square foot or $9 per roll — it’s the best of the best on our fields at a great price!

With Premium Turf & Sod from River Meadow Farms you’ll always get a vibrant, healthy looking, weed free lawn with no large bare patches or wild grasses from field edges!

Turf & Sod Pickup or Delivery

The best way to get your Turf & Sod is to pick it up yourself at our farm location just a few minutes from downtown Courtenay in the Comox Valley! Pickup allows you to choose your own schedule and gets you the best savings as delivery can be costly.

If pick-up is not possible, we also offer Turf & Sod Delivery to many communities on central Vancouver Island including Courtenay, Comox, Cumberland, Parksville, Qualicum, Union Bay, and Bowser.

Delivery can be added onto your turf and sod order starting at $120 when delivered to the greater Comox Valley area (Oyster River to Buckley Bay) by pick-up truck. For larger orders that require a full-sized truck, delivery starts at $220. Contact us today to arrange an easy delivery straight to your home or business.

We also welcome Turf & Sod pickup customers from farther communities such as Nanaimo, Ladysmith, Port Hardy, Port McNeill, Duncan, Gold River, Powell River, Denman Island, Hornby Island, and Quadra Island. Unfortunately, we are often unable to arrange delivery to these more distant locations due to time constraints, but feel free to inquire if it is important to you.

What’s the difference between Turf and Sod?

Turf and Sod are both terms used to describe the same product: an upper layer of soil that we grow quality grass on and harvest in the form of rolls for your lawn. There’s no meaningful difference, we simply refer to our product using both terms to help as many customers as possible find us. You can use whichever terminology you prefer, and we’ll get you the same great grass for your lawn!
