BACKGROUND
Craig and Gerri Harvey are the third generation to live on their family farm in Rosetown, Saskatchewan.
Their current shelterbelts (or windbreaks) were established in the ’40s and ’70s and were beginning to thin out. They started planting more in 2021 and are currently at 1200 new trees.
