We are so thankful that our 2018 Canola Crop was finally able to be harvested on Saturday October 6. We would like to thank every one of our AgVenture volunteers who were there to make it happen. We would also like to thank Rocky Mountain Equipment(formerly John Bob) for the use of a New Holland Combine. Red Head Equipment also provided a Case Combine that day. A&K Enns Trucking got the canola moved and for that we are grateful. And last but not least we thank the Pineland Coop for a great field meal to keep everyone running. Our hope is for all the farmers in the Northeast to get their crops off soon. Good weather is said to still be coming so here's hoping.
