Establishing a family farm in today’s environment is difficult. Establishing a hog farm is almost impossible when experienced in the context of the crash of the Canadian hog market as has occurred in the last few years. This was what happened to a prairie family. They lost their hog business and due to farm bankruptcy was advised. However, this family was courageously determined to avoid this route and pay their creditors in full. To remain true to their ideals they re-mortgaged their future and struggled and pay off their mostly patient creditors. MAX Canada was pleased to provide a Share Fund grant to assist the congregation as it walked with and assisted this young family.
