FarmFair Cancelled for 2020

It really comes as no surprise given all the events that have been cancelled or postponed this year because of COVID 19.
 
Late last week, Northlands president Peter Male announced the cancellation of the 2020 edition of Farmfair International, which was slated to run from November 11th to the 15th at the Expo Centre. Male said it was a difficult decision but they recognized the responsibility to maintain the health and safety of visitors, exhibitors and staff was paramount.
 
The annual show at Northlands has been around for more than 40 years and Male says plans are already underway for Farmfair 2021.  Farmfair joins the Canadian Western Agribition who cancelled their show back in June.  Farmfair 2021 will be held in Edmonton from November 10th to 14th, 2021.

Spring Planting Prep Just Got Serious… We NEED This!

Video: Spring Planting Prep Just Got Serious… We NEED This!

Getting closer to planting season means one thing… it’s time to get EVERYTHING ready.

Today didn’t go exactly as planned—we thought we’d be hauling potatoes again, but instead we spent the day digging equipment out of the cellar, hooking up the grain drill, and getting tractors ready to roll. With wheat planting just around the corner, every piece of equipment matters.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a normal day without a few problems… dead batteries, hydraulic issues, and a truck tire that absolutely refused to cooperate. We tried everything—jump packs, bead bazooka, ratchet straps… and eventually had to bring out the “big guns” just to get things moving again.

But that’s farm life—adapt, fix, and keep moving forward.

We’re getting close to go-time. Wheat seed is coming soon, and planting season is right around the corner
