Ontario Agriculture

The network for agriculture in Ontario, Canada

These are the organic flower beds that I maintained on Vancouver Island. At this particular farm, I was also responsible for installing and repairing irrigation lines, as well as seeding new crops, bed preparation and fertilization, transplanting from greenhouse to field, weeding, and spraying organic pesticides. I helped to set up a new greenhouse, built a bee garden, harvested crops and took part in the farm stand sales! It was an amazing experience to get to take part in crop production beginning to end.
