Jordan and Jennifer Lindgren
Lindgren Farms Ltd.
Jordan and Jennifer, along with their four children Jaxson, Alexis, Westin
and Bristol, own and operate Lindgren Farms at Norquay, Saskatchewan.
Lindgren Farms is a grain and oilseed farm that works diligently at maxi-
mizing production for these crops, while minimizing cost of production.
They do this by using field scale trials to determine what products,
genetics and practices work on their farm. By combining these methods,
with the latest advancements in technology, they continue to meet and
exceed their production goals.
They not only place importance on educating themselves, but also
sharing this information with fellow farmers. Jordan and Jennifer partner
with local agriculture distributors to host the “Field of Dreams” tour that
is held annually on their farm. It is an opportunity to share trial results from previous years and showcase
the current trials that are focused on new genetics, applications and variable fertilizer rates. They also
plan to be a part of educating the next generation on the importance of farming and teaching themwhere
their food comes from. This year they are excited about incorporating a “Food Farm” which is an interac-
tive tour geared at educating grade 3 and 4 students on agriculture.
Family and agriculture are the most important aspects of their lives. They also take time to be active
leaders, volunteers and supporters for their community. They take great pride in being able to continue
their century family farm and are passionate at maintaining the family aspect in the ever changing corpo-
rate farm environment.
