Open Farm Days happening this weekend

Saskatchewan Open Farm Days is returning this weekend.

Self-drive tours and bus tours are happening Saturday and Sunday at participating farms throughout the province.

Event spokesperson Ashley Stone joined Good Morning Saskatchewan with Cody and Gloria on Wednesday and said its a chance for people of all backgrounds - from those who grew up on a farm showing the younger generation to individuals who know little about agriculture - to learn where their food comes from. 

Every kind of operation - from dairy, beef cattle and pigs to traditional grain - will be featured during Open Farm Days.

"It's so diverse being able to capture the story, so we're excited these 35 hosts are on board and opening their doors. It's a good weekend." said Stone.

Tours will be around southern Saskatchewan, including Moose Jaw, Regina, Val Marie, Swift Current, Moosomin, and Minton. Farms around the central and northwestern parts of the province are also involved.

She encourages everyone to spend a day at one of the participating farms.

"Every farm offers something free for you to check out so you can go and have a really affordable weekend out exploring."

A map of farms taking part in Open Farms Day Saturday and Sunday, and how to register, is online at skopenfarmdays.ca under the "visit a farm" tab.

We’ll NEVER Use These Grain Bins Again!

Video: We’ll NEVER Use These Grain Bins Again!


A huge change is happening on the farm — our new grain bin has officially arrived, and that means we’ll never use some of our old grain bins again. In today's video, we take delivery of the new grain bin, look back at the old bins that have been part of our farm for years, and talk about why this upgrade is such a big deal for harvest, grain storage, and the future of our family farm.

This is more than just a grain bin delivery. It’s the end of an era and the start of a major farm upgrade that will completely change how we handle corn during harvest. From old grain storage to a brand-new bin setup, this project is one of the biggest improvements we’ve made at the farm.

Join me as the new grain bin shows up, the bin project continues, and we prepare for a new chapter in harvest efficiency on our Minnesota family farm.
