Innisfree Farmer’s Day

Ranfurly, Innisfree, and Vegreville all take part sharing volunteers and alternate hosting,” said Deputy Reeve, Tara Kuzio. “Our municipality is mostly agricultural land. Agriculture runs our economy right across the province. Farmers feed the world; it is the most important job in the world. It is a hard life; we’re all here to celebrate, but we’re all praying for rain.”

Noting the good years and the tough years, Kuzio said she grew up on a ranch and after working for grain companies along the way, she and her husband operate a purebred Simmental business in Ranfurly. She figures rural is a great place to live and raise your family.

“A celebration like this is a time of connec- tion; knowing your next door neighbours and supporting one another,” said Kuzio.
