Join Our Team

The District of Kent is in beautiful Agassiz, B.C. which boasts a friendly community spirit with a diverse economy in agriculture, industrial development, and tourism. Hidden within the Upper Fraser Valley of British Columbia's southwest coastal region, the Harrison Lake, Fraser River, and Fraser Canyon are all a stones throw away from this fantastic community.
