Brock Aggregates

When you think of Parliament Hill in Ottawa, you often picture the Gothic towers and grand façades. Much of the exterior is built from locally quarried Nepean sandstone, a durable, well‑cemented stone rich in quartz that has resisted weathering cycles since the 1860s. #Aggregates

@LessMessSoil 👏👏

POV: When your husband asks how a Less Mess Bag ended up on the driveway… ‘Oh, how did that get there?’ #Magic #Garden #Soil #Plants

@LessMessSoil Love the Magnolia!

This week’s Plant of the Week is the striking Bigleaf Magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla). Known for its enormous leaves and impressive, fragrant flowers, Bigleaf Magnolia makes a bold statement in any landscape. #PlantOfTheWeek

When we think of the CN Tower, we picture height and design, but the real unsung heroes are the aggregates that make it possible. High-quality crushed stone, gravel, and sand were key components in the mix that forms the tower’s core, giving it strength, and durability.

@LessMessSoil Lovely!

This week’s Plant of the Week is the stunning Peony, celebrated for its large, fragrant blooms and timeless elegance. With flowers ranging from soft pastels to deep, rich hues, peonies create a show-stopping focal point in garden beds! #PlantOfTheWeek #Peonies #GardenInspiration

These early designs laid the groundwork for how highways and urban streets are built across the province.

Roads like the original sections of Yonge Street, parts of Highway 2 and early sections of the Toronto–Hamilton corridor were among the first to use engineered aggregate bases to support increasing traffic in the early 1900s.

The roots of Ontario’s modern road network go back more than a century, and many of the oldest paved routes still in use today began with simple crushed stone foundations. Read More In The Replies! #AggregateHistory #Aggregates

@LessMessSoil Amazing 👏

Matt from Less Mess takes a closer look at Pine Mulch, a finely shredded mulch that not only smells amazing but also works hard in your garden. Its smaller, softer pieces break down faster than coarser mulches, releasing nutrients gradually into the soil. #Mulch #SoilExperts

@LessMessSoil Bahaha true

You said you’d only plant a few things… eight hours later, your hands are dirty, your knees are sore, and now you’re trying to convince everyone gardening isn’t addictive. Yeah, right. #GardeningLife #SoilMatters #PlantAddict #GardenMood

Not all stones behave the same when it comes to building strong, long-lasting surfaces. Crushed stone, with its angular edges, naturally locks together when compacted, creating a dense, stable foundation. #TheMoreYouKnow #Aggregates

@juelgroup Amazing work Julianne!

Ever wonder what a day in the life of a Juel Group Sales Representative looks like?💎📷 Julianne walks us through her typical day, balancing client meetings, sales planning, and coordination across four different divisions. #MeetTheGems #TeamSpotlight #EmployeeStories

Clean gravel products like 3/8 inch pea gravel and HL6 gravel are designed for applications where drainage and consistency are critical. Washed to remove fines, these materials help prevent water buildup and reduce shifting over time. #Aggregates #GravelProducts #Utility

Gravel is essential for building durable access routes and load-bearing surfaces. Granular A and Granular B gravels are widely used in roadways, parking areas, and driveways where strength and compaction are required. #Aggregates #LearnedSomethingNew

@LessMessSoil Great work Matt! Looking forward to more!
