Smoked beef brisket from an animal we butchered recently. Thanks for making it amazing! What an Easter feast with some family home.

Delivering straw, rolled barley, layer feed and protein pellets (pellets supplied off farm) today! Oh, and a ladder rack for a pickup. Huzzah!

Adaptation gardening resonates with me. I guess it’s what we’ve been growing here for years, without an official title. Go and check out Going to Seed! https://goingtoseed.org/collections/2026-canada-collection I’ve been saving dry beans, peas and a few others over the years, and I would definitely say those saved seeds grow stronger and healthier here.

These are both Tendergreen Improved green bush bean seeds from our garden. Yet, there is a definite colour difference. On the top, saved in 2023. That saved seed planted, resulting in seeds on the bottom saved in 2025. So interesting. Anyone have a reasonable explanation?

Look what’s happening today! We rented a man lift and are finally upgrading our lights to LED in the shop. It’s brighter than daylight now. Teamwork for the win.

Sweet win today at a customer appreciation lunch with Gold Rain Processors in Bashaw! We prioritize selling the crop we grow locally - and these guys are amazing to work with. Now I have the perfect cooler to take refreshing drinks to meals in the field next harvest season. Thanks!

Crazy to think that it’s still nice enough to plant garlic on November 4! Chose my largest cloves nestled in a layer of compost and then topped with straw.

A glorious day to hang out with the turkeys. The end of this season has arrived, and we are thankful. We’ve had some tough losses because of coyotes this year. Our faithful dog is getting old.
