Hello Canola promotes the crop and its benefits

SaskCanola, Alberta Canola, and Manitoba Canola Growers have launched a new brand campaign.

The joint National Canola Marketing Program focuses on telling the story of canola, its many uses, and health benefits.

Canola is grown on over 20 million acres across Canada primarily in Western Canada and is one of the country's most valuable agricultural exports.

According to the "Hellocanola" website more than 207,000 Canadian jobs are linked to canola and the crop’s potential continues to grow.

Canola is known to be a heart-healthy cooking oil, but is also used in other areas such as the beauty industry, pet food, manufacturing, biofuel, and fashion industries.

Canola is also being used in biofuel production around the world as it is a low-carbon, sustainable and renewable resource. 

The website has a learning centre, recipe area, talks about the many benefits of the crop and its sustainability story.

Border View Farms is a mid-sized family farm that sits on the Ohio-Michigan border. My name is Nathan. I make and edit all of the videos posted here. I farm with my dad, Mark and uncle, Phil. We also have a part-time employee, Brock. My dad started the farm in 1980. Since then we have grown the operation from just a couple hundred acres to over 3,000. Watch my 500th video for a history of our farm I filmed with my dad.

I started making these videos in the fall of 2019 as a way to help show what I do on a daily basis as a farmer. Agriculture is different from any other industry and I believe the more people that are showing their small piece of agriculture, helps to build our story. We face unique challenges and stressful situations but have some of the most rewarding payoffs in the end. I get to spend everyday doing what I love, raising my kids on the farm, and trying to push our farm to be better every year. I hope that I can address questions or concerns that you might have about farms and agriculture.

I hope you enjoy my content and ask questions as you have them. I do my best to answer anything I can. Thanks for watching!
