Holiday Gift Giving for the Farmer Homesteader and Property Owners in Your Life

Merridale Farms is all about guiding nature to produce high-quality, all-natural products that are farm crafted cider (and other spirits) made with heritage cider apples, slowly fermenting the juice from the first apple pressing.

At Merridale they work with nature, work to reduce their environmental footprint and also strive to be a force for good both in the environment and in their community.

For more on Merridale Farms and the business of cider, please see the November-December 2022 issue of Small Farm Canada.

Video: What is Anhydrous Ammonia and Why Do We Use It?

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. Our part-time employee, Brock, also helps with the filming. 1980 was our first year in Waldron where our main farm is now. 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.
