Right now the farmers are getting their grains, corn, canola, beans off the land. Weather has been favourable and they have been at it steady for some time. Here are a couple of pics of some of the fields they work in.

Harvest time on the Little clay belt
East of Gowganda about 50km. is the fertile clay belt, this happened thousands of years ago when a great lake drained and left the fertile soil behind. Gowganda is on the Precambrian Shield, shallow soils and lots of rock.
Right now the farmers are getting their grains, corn, canola, beans off the land. Weather has been favourable and they have been at it steady for some time. Here are a couple of pics of some of the fields they work in.
