Why Choose Redefined Horizons For Agricultural Land Surveys?
Both the partners in Redefined Horizons have a long history of surveying to support agriculture. Dani grew up on the farms west of Modesto in Stanislaus County. He performed surveys for agricultural operations during his time at Hawkins and Associates. Landon grew up in the Flathead Valley of Northwest Montana, home to timber harvesting and the farming of wheat, mint, apples, and cherries. He spent several years of his early career doing extensive surveys on farms in the Sacramento/San Joaquin Delta.
Redefined Horizons is a non-union company with affordable hourly rates for surveying services. The Redefined Teams have a thorough knowledge of local land use regulations that apply to agriculture. Both Dani and Landon take pride in their strong country work ethic and have high moral values. Both Dani and Landon have worked with local reclamation districts and irrigation districts.
