Provenance
Turner's Dairy was owned by F. Turner and Sons. The business provided pasteurized milk and cream both at the wholesale, retail and delivery-truck levels. Located at the corner of 17th Avenue and Ontario Street, Vancouver., the dairy is first recorded in Henderson's Directory for Vancouver in 1915 and is no longer listed as of 1921. However, the business carried on through 1931 also operated by Edenbank, Ayrshire and Associated Dairies.

Turner's Dairy building, a purpose built dairy, is extant though developed ca. 2019 into a series of 13 townhomes in Vancouver's Mt. Pleasant District.
