This is sad for me to report, - Ecocert now supports incentives and initiatives that align with the "Green New Deal" which is a creation of the WEF and/or the WHO. Because of my core beliefs, I can not support or be a part of these "deals" that have world control and environmental dominance written all over them. I have resigned my membership in this organization but will continue to farm in an "organic" and sustainable manner. I must follow my heart!!
Our plan is to seed all the farmland to hay and grasses. Cows, horses, and whoever will consume this hay don't care about the agenda of the WEF and the WHO. These animals simply know good quality food. Love to everyone.

Swathing saw only one major breakdown! Great job, Tom! Combining was completed by Larry. All went smooth, except for a couple of plug-ups in the heavy oats.  Larry and his JD8820 Combine. We sold the oats to Grain Millers Canada Corp in Yorkton, Saskatchewan  Loading the oats onto Highway16 Transport Ltd. truck operated by Jeff Summer 2023 came and went in a flash. This summer we seeded Red Spring Wheat and Oats.  Seeding 2023 went smooth, no complications. Fertilizing in summer of 2023 consisted of spreading 100 pounds per acre of Softrock Phosphate (3/8" crush). The day of spreading was perfect weather ...... not much wind! From Softrock Phosphate, a colloidal mineral powder can easily be extracted which is natural, not harmful, and non-toxic. I use this colloidal mineral powder to make toothpaste! Imagine getting a colloidal mineral supplement while brushing your teeth. :)  Spreading 3/8inch crush Softrock Phosphate  Perfect conditions for spreading the Softrock Phosphate.  This picture was taken in July, 2023. Oats looked great! This field yielded over 60 bushels to the acre!   Thanks to Richard of Highway 16 Transport, a load of organic oats was delivered to Grain Millers, Yorkton, Saskatchewan. Beautiful day for loading.
The job of Canada Thistle is to loosen the soil. Therefore, in order to combat this Canada Thistle infestation, we must loosen the soil! To do so, we sprayed 90gm per acre of GSR Dormant Calcium*, and 4 pounds per acre organic cane sugar. Sugar is an excellent source of carbon, essential in soil health processes and plant growth. |
 | 130 acres are seeded to Summit Oats. Since soil moisture this spring was very high (fields were to wet to work earlier), seeds were placed at a shallower depth (1 inch) than in dryer years. By the time the last acre was seeded, the field initially seeded was starting to emerge from the ground. |
Looks like a beautiful day for loading, but the cold wind was nasty with a bite! The rye is on its way to the market in USA.
