Farm Families Honoured In Fairview

Eight farming and ranching families are being honoured in Fairview this week, with Century Farm and Ranch Awards. This is the final recognition event of the summer. Kelly Hudson’s family is one of those attending the event, and he says it was important to keep the farm in the family, right from the time his grandfather homesteaded the land.

We are taking students out to southern Manitoba to Hespler Farms! Farmer Wayne will teach students how he plants and cares for his potato crop and why potatoes are such a unique crop to grow. Teachers, check out your AITC Dashboard for Math'd Potatoes, a potato-themed classroom resource to pair with this tour video. Thank you to Peak of the Market and Penner Farm Services for making this event possible.
