Video: Locks, Boats & Visiting Sheep Farmers!

In today’s episode of our sheep farming vlog at Ewetopia Farms, we blend farm life with a bit of local sightseeing as we welcome fellow sheep farmers visiting from Alberta!

With perfect timing, we watch several pleasure boats and even the Kawartha Voyageur cruise ship navigate the locks, a rare treat for visitors and locals alike.
