Canadian Cattle Young Leaders Program welcomes McDonald's Canada as a Platinum Partner

McDonald’s Canada has become the very first Platinum Partner of the Canadian Cattle Young Leaders (CYL) Program. 

McDonald’s has been a Foundation Partner since 2017 and their support of the program exceeds their financial contributions. 

Their support has ranged from participating as mentors to CYL  participants, collaborating on workshops and tours, and helping with the judging process for selecting program participants.

The Canadian Cattle Association looks forward to their continued collaboration with McDonald's Canada in their efforts to support the future of the Canadian beef industry.

 CCA President Nathan Phinney says the future success of Canada’s beef industry is built on the investment we make in our next generation of leaders.

"We are grateful to McDonald’s Canada for growing their investment in our young leaders and helping us to take our program to new heights."

Video: Time To Build An Ark: Sheltering Our Flock From Adverse Weather Conditions!

Relentless spring rains are drenching our sheep farm! Despite the downpour, our sheep are fortunate to have a cozy and dry shelter in our barns. Our barns are equipped with curtains on all sides, allowing us to adjust the amount of natural light and fresh air that enters. Whether it's opening them wide to create an outdoor-like environment or shutting them tight to keep the sheep snug and content, our barns provide the perfect refuge from the harsh weather conditions outside.

While we appreciate the nourishing rain that will eventually result in lush pastures and abundant hay during the summer, we are grateful that our sheep are not exposed to the elements and remain healthy. Join us as we lay fresh bedding in every barn, ensuring our sheep's comfort and well-being. Witness the joy of our lambs frolicking in the straw, a true testament to their happiness.

Despite our usual practice of avoiding shipping sheep during adverse weather, today we had to transport a few breeding ewes and a ram to a customer with an inflexible schedule. Discover the breeding stock chosen by the customer and witness how we carefully load them for transport.

Rain or shine, the work on a sheep farm never stops. However, having a sheltered space makes these challenging days a little more bearable. Join us on our vlog as we navigate through the rainy season, providing the best care for our flock. Welcome to Ewetopia Farms, where we document our daily sheep farming activities on our vlog.
