“Once in your life you need a doctor, lawyer, policeman, or preacher but every day — three times a day — you need a farmer.”

Brenda Schoepp from AlbertaFarmer Express wrote an article regarding the common farmer phrase, “Once in your life you need a doctor, lawyer, policeman, or preacher but every day — three times a day — you need a farmer.”

Stating, “Three times a day — an essential service because we are more than food. We are also the basis of energy, clothing, electronics, transportation, research, beauty, health and well-being, housing, communication and more. And what is so fascinating and important about farming is that we are regenerative. From the care we give our soils to the welfare of flock and animals to the science of our greenhouses and beauty of our flowers — we are the very threads in the fabric that weave through our nation.”
