Reg Schellenberg Next Generation Legacy Award promotes youth leadership in the beef industry

The Reg Schellenberg Next Generation Legacy Award was announced this week during the Canadian Beef Industry Conference.

Reg Schellenberg, a rancher from Beechy, Saskatchewan was President of the Canadian Cattle Association when he passed away suddenly in December of 2022.

In lieu of flowers, the family asked for donations to be made through the Canadian Cattle Foundation to support the Canadian Cattle Young Leaders (CYL) Program.

In addition, the Saskatchewan Beef Industry Conference has generously donated $10,000 to the Reg Schellenberg Legacy Fund to support this award. 

The Canadian Cattle Foundation Chair Bob Lowe says Schellenberg was a strong leader for the Canadian beef industry and passionate about its next generation.

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.
