Irrigation was an easy decision for Barb Stefanyshyn-Cote when starting Black Fox Farm and Distillery eight years ago with her husband.
“It was the first thing we put into the farm, when we bought this piece of property,” Stefanyshyn-Cote said.
The farm southwest of Saskatoon has 80 acres under irrigation, growing everything from pumpkins and flowers to raspberries and haskaps for liqueurs.
