Hello everyone, my name is Erin, and I am a grain farmer in northern Alberta. I’m so thankful to share some stories about my agricultural community with you. My biggest takeaway for you is that community is intentional; it doesn’t happen by accident! Farm life is a unique job with odd hours. It takes effort to find and stay in community when so much of your work is done in your own yard, in your own machinery and your own timing.
