Video: The Ardiels Part Two | Real Farm Lives


Being a successful apple farmer is all about growing… and not just out in the orchards. Kyle Ardiel is always looking for ways that can improve the apple harvest and evolve his family’s Apple Springs Orchards plot. From trellis systems that allow the family to plant more trees per acre to special reflective material that bounces light onto their apple crop to improve their colour, the Ardiels show us how new innovations can keep their farm thriving. We also reflect on nearly four decades of farm life with mom Gail, who reveals that she’s on a constant quest to produce award-winning apples.
