A little Monday humour!
Living and working in Simcoe County has so many agricultural benefits for both farmers and consumers. Here is another local family-owned farm making a difference. https://www.simcoe.com//6745563-cookstown-greens-focuses-/
Raising meat chickens on pasture is one way farmers can return fertility to the soil for future generations. This farm at the edge of Simcoe County is not only doing that, they have found a way to do it with 5,000 chickens per month, more than any other pastured chicken farm in all of North America! https://barrie.ctvnews.ca/mobile/video?clipId=2042205
In the past, each Ontario town had it’s own creamery to keep the local population supplied with milk and butter. Today, Simcoe County is home to the last remaining family-owned butter creamery in Ontario, whose products are in high demand throughout the province. We are fortunate to enjoy their own line, Golden Dawn, found at family stores around the county. https://www.thestar.com//alliston-ont-home-to-last-indepen
With fewer than 80 dairy farms left in Simcoe County, it is encouraging to watch farmers grab the proverbial bull by the horns and use innovations to make their farms more productive and efficient, like letting the cows milk themselves! https://www.simcoe.com//9168040-sheldon-creek-dairy-cows-/
When you see the determined faces of our area youth competing at the annual Barrie Fair, you won’t be surprised to learn than many of them also have thriving businesses at home on the farm. From selling fresh eggs and sweet corn to freezer meat and rebuilt tractors, our farms are our future when it comes to building entrepreneurs. The Essa Agriplex puts your your first on priorities for education activities. https://www.fcc-fac.ca//knowledge/when-farm-kids-learn-and
