Fence Supplies
Built for Canada
By Farmers, For Farmers
Founded in 1985 by Lee Fennell, Okanagan Fence Supplies began in Armstrong, BC, with a simple goal: to help ranchers and resource managers thrive in rugged, remote conditions. Nearly 40 years later, we’re still family-run and still turning solar-powered ideas into practical, field-tested solutions.
“We’re proud to support Canadian ranchers with reliable, no-nonsense solutions that work where you live.”
A Legacy of Innovation
Lee’s background in crown resource road maintenance, grass seeding, and rural project management inspired our early mission: build work-hardened systems that perform where others can’t. That drive led to the creation of our standout innovation — the Solar Water Buggy — an all-in-one, towable trough with built-in solar pump that’s become a cornerstone of our “work smart” ethos.
