Our Farm
Our farm in South Gillies is nestled in a valley with mountains on three sides and a creek running through it. Homesteaded in 1906, we are the fourth family to keep this land in active farming. We have a flock of 60 sheep that provide us with lambs once each year. We also have a herd of Red Angus Beef, who enjoy roaming the 100 acre piece of the farm in the summer. We grow crops on most of the remaining 220 acres. This becomes winter feed for all our animals. Winter housing for the animals is a large open concept barn with plenty of dry straw bedding and good feed to eat.
Garden
In the summer we have a large vegetable garden. We use the composted manure from our animals for fertilizer. Our family, along with young people from the neighbourhood will spend many hours tending the garden.
Visit us at our farm or at the Thunder Bay Country Market
Throughout the year we offer high quality meat not only right on our farm (please call (807) 475-3138 in advance) but also at the Thunder Bay Country Market, every Saturday and Wednesday night.
