1/8

Meanwhile in Saskatchewan 👊




















You know that joke about Saskatchewan, right? Easy to draw, hard to spell. 😜 

But harvest-time on the prairies? Growing and gathering food for the world? No joke. 1 in 8 Canadian jobs are connected to agriculture and the agri-food sector. Dear friends, have you thanked a farmer lately?

  2. It's a hard way to make a living and we all owe them a great debt of gratitude.

    1. Yes, sir. (I am not so partial but I know people who certainly are.)

  4. The worst part is the most people don't realize that the majority of farmers also have a job off the farm.

  5. Nope. I have not thanked a farmer recently, Here in England only 1% of people's jobs are connected with agriculture. My wife's father was a farmer all his life.

    1. Indeed, farmers are few and far between these days.
