Matt Hildebrandt with Morning Dove Gardens is one of a small number of young agrarians making farm life work.
When we met up with him at the Kelowna Farmers and CraftersÏã½¶ÊÓÆµÖ±²¥™ Market he said he made the move to work at one with nature eight years ago.
He knew it wouldnÏã½¶ÊÓÆµÖ±²¥™t be easy, so for the first two years he farmed for someone else to get a feel for what it was like.
Then he branched out on his own and heÏã½¶ÊÓÆµÖ±²¥™s not looking back.
ItÏã½¶ÊÓÆµÖ±²¥™s a struggle with the cost of land being so high in the valley, but itÏã½¶ÊÓÆµÖ±²¥™s one he thinks is worthwhile.
