Ever wondered what it’s really like to run a working farm in Canada? At Filmonsen Farms, every day begins before sunrise and ends with the satisfaction of honest work well done. From planting seeds to gathering eggs, no two days are exactly the same—but every day is rooted in purpose, care, and community. Here’s your inside look at a typical day on the farm.
🌞 5:00 AM – Sunrise & Early Chores
Our day starts early. The roosters crow, the mist rises, and we get to work.
- Animals are fed, watered, and checked for health.
- The greenhouse is opened to catch the morning warmth.
- Harvest teams prepare for the day’s crop picking.
“Before the world wakes, the farm is already moving.”
🥬 7:00 AM – Harvesting Fresh Produce
As the sun climbs, it’s time to head into the fields.
- We pick only what’s ripe—carrots, kale, zucchini, tomatoes, depending on the season.
- Everything is hand-harvested to preserve quality and freshness.
- Produce is sorted, washed, and prepped for orders.
🐄 9:30 AM – Livestock Care & Dairy Work
We take animal care seriously. Happy animals = healthy food.
- Cows are milked using clean, gentle techniques.
- Pens and barns are cleaned and inspected.
- Free-range chickens roam and lay eggs throughout the day.
🧺 12:00 PM – Farm-to-Table Prep & Deliveries
Afternoons are for connecting our harvest to your homes.
- Orders for local markets, restaurants, and customers are packed.
- We prep veggie boxes, label goods, and organize delivery routes.
- Our farm store is restocked with fresh eggs, meat, and preserves.
🧑🌾 2:00 PM – Field Work, Maintenance & Planning
Farming is more than harvesting—there’s soil to nurture and seasons to plan for.
- We rotate crops, turn compost, and repair tools or fencing.
- Planning meetings help us prepare for seasonal shifts and customer demand.
- Sometimes we host educational visits or farm tours for schools and guests.
🌅 6:00 PM – Evening Routines & Reflection
As the sun sets, we wind down the day.
- Animals are secured and fed one last time.
- Machinery is cleaned, records updated, and plans made for tomorrow.
- We gather around the table, tired but grateful.
“It’s not easy work—but it’s good work. And it’s worth every sunrise.”
