Schriemer Family Farm was founded by Trevor & Hendricks Schriemer after they moved to Otterburne, MB in 1999. Trevor’s experience in owning and operating his father’s Fruit Market business gave him an understanding on consumer’s demands, leading him to start a farm. They’re now a multigenerational farm that grows a variety of quality vegetables. You can pick-up their delicious cucumbers and grape and hothouse tomatoes in our Produce Department.

The 2022 Gala Committee is pleased to present tickets and sponsorship opportunities available for the 30th Gala Dinner and Dance planned for September 24. The Gala Committee is comprised of a group of community volunteers who have seen many years of success. We hope to continue this successful path with the 2022 event. You can help make that happen! In 2020/21, proceeds of $77,977 were used for the NICU Stay Within Reach Renovation project. Once completed, the renovations will allow parents of NICU babes a comfortable environment to stay while remaining close to their new baby. The proceeds from 2022 will be used for the purchase of much needed equipment at the BRHC.

June is Canadian Men’s Health Month, a time to inspire men and their families to live healthier lifestyles. It’s important for the men in our lives to make healthy changes that will lower their risk of chronic disease and help them live with less stress. Many of the most common health conditions affecting men are often preventable with the right lifestyle changes. This could include improving their diet or eating habits, getting more exercise, finding healthier ways to manage stress, and drinking less alcohol. Let this month be the start of a healthier you and/or a healthier loved one!
