Cargill Donates $8,000 To Elm Creek Day Care

Employees from Cargill’s Elm Creek crop inputs retailer presented a cheque for $8,000 to the Elm Creek Stay and Play Centre after area farmers voted for the charity during a recent customer promotion.
 
Together with Corteva Agriscience, Cargill developed the Cargill in the Community Program where farmers received votes for local charities based on crop protection purchases made during a specific timeframe earlier this year.
 
The Elm Creek Stay and Play Centre’s fundraising efforts will fund a new, larger daycare and nursery school.

Spring Planting Prep Just Got Serious… We NEED This!

Video: Spring Planting Prep Just Got Serious… We NEED This!

Getting closer to planting season means one thing… it’s time to get EVERYTHING ready.

Today didn’t go exactly as planned—we thought we’d be hauling potatoes again, but instead we spent the day digging equipment out of the cellar, hooking up the grain drill, and getting tractors ready to roll. With wheat planting just around the corner, every piece of equipment matters.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a normal day without a few problems… dead batteries, hydraulic issues, and a truck tire that absolutely refused to cooperate. We tried everything—jump packs, bead bazooka, ratchet straps… and eventually had to bring out the “big guns” just to get things moving again.

But that’s farm life—adapt, fix, and keep moving forward.

We’re getting close to go-time. Wheat seed is coming soon, and planting season is right around the corner
