| OUR
STORY When we look back now and ask ourselves, "Why did we choose garlic?" We have a hard time answering that question. I think we came to this decision because of many different circumstances and events. I had always taken antibiotics for throat infections and had been advised from an aunt to eat garlic instead. She suggested I substitute a natural herbal concoction instead of prescriptions. I took her advice and ate garlic daily. My new remedy soon became obvious to my co-workers but I never had any more throat infections. I remember joking with them, especially when the stress levels rose that I was going to quit my job and become a garlic farmer. As this was well before we found our new land, I had no intention or ever dreamed that this would actually happen, BUT IT DID! In the spring of 2005, my husband Darrel and I purchased a small farm 3 miles north of Yorkton. We knew we wanted to do something with this land to generate revenue but weren't sure what. It had to be something that didn't require many acres or a large
investment and something that showed potential for generating extra
income in a relatively short period of time. |
