Free online market access tool

Are you a processor or producer entering a new market? Not sure if you can meet your customer or regulatory requirements? There is a new resource that can help get you on your way.

Meeting Customer Requirements is a free, online resource developed by Alberta Agriculture and Forestry to guide producers and processors through the necessary steps to consistently meet market, standards and regulatory requirements.

This tool helps producers and food processors to evaluate their current ability to meet new requirements; create an action plan to address gaps; maintain their system through an internal audit; and prove they are meeting requirements through an external audit.

Meeting Customer Requirements started as a tool to help producers understand the terms of their contracts, and has expanded to prepare processors to meet the requirements of regulations, contracts, and customer requirements.

Video: Case IH Grain Drill Assembly: Extra Hands Required

its time to put things back together on the International 5100 grain drill. I reassemble all the row units back together and then try to install it back on the drill by myself. But that proved to be more challenging than I figured. So I enlist some help from Logans. It was so much fun having my son's help with farm projects. Its truly takes family to help make farming successful.

I am the 2nd generation to live on this property after my parents purchased it in 1978. As a child my father hobby farmed pigs for a couple years and ran a vegetable garden. But we were not a farm by any stretch of the imagination. There were however many family dairy farms surrounding us. So naturally I was hooked with farming since I saw my first tractor. As time went on, I worked for a couple of these farms and that only fueled my love of agriculture. In 2019 I was able to move back home as my parents were ready to downsize and I was ready to try my hand at farming. Stacy and logan share the same love of farming as I do. Stacy growing up on her family's dairy farm and logans exposure of farming/tractors at a very young age. We all share this same passion to grow a quality/healthy product to share with our community. Join us on this journey and see where the farm life takes us.
