We're always seeking out adventures that bring the past back to the future one treasure at a time. Welcome to The Digging Dudes official page. We're a group of passionate local history enthusiasts who aren't your average or typical history buffs. We're a laid-back team of professional metal detectorists who are on a mission to uncover the hidden treasures of the Ottawa Valley. In fact, our dedicat
ion to preserving local history was recognized when we won the Awesome Ottawa's award in November 2022. We use metal detectors to unearth all sorts of fascinating items that have been buried for over 200 years. Our motto is simple yet powerful: "Bringing the past back to the future, one treasure at a time." To us, treasure isn't just about its monetary value; it's the stories these items have to tell. Whether it's a spoon, horseshoe, pocket watch, ring, buckle, or even an old coin, these artifacts hold pieces of history. We believe it's our duty to document and share these stories, ensuring they aren't forgotten. Thanks to the generous permissions of numerous landowners in the area, we had an incredible year saving history from being lost forever. To those who have already supported us, a big heartfelt thank you! Now, we're on a quest to connect with more landowners, especially those with older homes and farms. We want to keep uncovering the rich history that lies beneath the soil. If you're interested or know someone who might be, please message me directly. And here's the best part – we document and film our discoveries and leave no mess behind. It's completely cost-free, and we have plenty of references to vouch for our responsible work. If this project piques your interest, check out some of the incredible things we've found on our website, www.TheDiggingDudes.ca. Let's work together to keep our local history alive and thriving! 😊
We do not get paid for this hobby, so consider buying us a coffee if you like what you see. A coffee will fuel our future hunts. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thediggingdudes
