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 CraftersÎÚÑ»´«Ã½™ Market he said he made the move to work at one with nature eight years ago.
He knew it wouldnÎÚÑ»´«Ã½™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 heÎÚÑ»´«Ã½™s not looking back.
ItÎÚÑ»´«Ã½™s a struggle with the cost of land being so high in the valley, but itÎÚÑ»´«Ã½™s one he thinks is worthwhile.
