First official meeting in the new shop today, discussing winter survivability of this year’s fall rye and winter wheat crops.

Big thanks to @FPGenetics @TheScoularCo @kwscanada @ducanada for coming out to present to our growers. The rye crop is hanging in there!

@courtseeds @RonKrahn We have had to train all our people.
I came down to if your paying into WCB you have to be Trained. And actually if you put pallet Forks on a front end loaded it classifies as a fork lift.
Had a claim with WCB this summer regarding forks on a loader!
