Winnipeg, MB—Canadian Canola Growers Association (CCGA) has been recognized as an exceptional place to work by Manitoba's Top Employers for the third time. Earlier today, the winners of the 2023 competition were announced by the organizers of the annual Canada's Top 100 Employers project and showcased online and in a special magazine featured in the Winnipeg Free Press.

"This award recognizes the commitment that we have made to creating a vibrant workplace that supports people, and we're proud to be a recipient for a third time," says Rick White, President & CEO at CCGA. "Receiving the award also highlights the excellent career opportunities that agriculture can offer Manitobans. We have a team with expertise in many different disciplines and from many different backgrounds, all who have found success in the agriculture sector."

To achieve recognition through Manitoba's Top Employer, CCGA was assessed on eight criteria including 1) workplace, 2) work atmosphere, 3) benefits, 4) vacation and time off, 5) employee communications, 6) performance management, 7) training and development, and 8) community involvement.

Border View Farms is a mid-sized family farm that sits on the Ohio-Michigan border. My name is Nathan. I make and edit all of the videos posted here. I farm with my dad, Mark and uncle, Phil. We also have a part-time employee, Brock. My dad started the farm in 1980. Since then we have grown the operation from just a couple hundred acres to over 3,000. Watch my 500th video for a history of our farm I filmed with my dad.

I started making these videos in the fall of 2019 as a way to help show what I do on a daily basis as a farmer. Agriculture is different from any other industry and I believe the more people that are showing their small piece of agriculture, helps to build our story. We face unique challenges and stressful situations but have some of the most rewarding payoffs in the end. I get to spend everyday doing what I love, raising my kids on the farm, and trying to push our farm to be better every year. I hope that I can address questions or concerns that you might have about farms and agriculture.

I hope you enjoy my content and ask questions as you have them. I do my best to answer anything I can. Thanks for watching!
