Farm Profile

The AdFarm Alberta farm began in 2001. It became fertile testing grounds for our knowledge and hands-on experience with the ups and downs of farming.

2008 – Field Peas (Hailed out: July 15, 2008)
2009 – Field Peas
2010 – InVigor Canola

The Farm and Farmer

We are excited to partner again this year with Graham Farms Limited, with Ben Graham, AdFarm Senior VP, and his family farm. Ben’s parents John and Donna Graham and his uncle Doug Graham are all partners in this Century farm. The farm is in a dark brown soil zone which nurtures a variety of crops every year on this widely spread farm land. The family farm was started in 1904 and the new house stands just about where the original house was, in the same farmyard.

Over the years, Graham Farms has explored almost every part of agriculture – from chickens, pig and cows, to wheat, peas and canola. Today, it is successful grain farm that provides many learning opportunities for AdFarm Calgary employees.

We look forward to building our relationship with the Grahams in the coming years.
