In 2010, at just 25 years old, Brenna Jansen returned to her family’s Pembroke farm to embark on her farming journey as the owner and operator of Hedgeview Farm Organics.
“As a farmer, I recognize that I am a land steward,” says Jansen, who invests heavily each year in environmental projects aimed at enhancing the natural features of her farm to improve habitats for species at risk, protecting the soil and supporting biodiversity.
“It’s my small way I can take action on climate change — I want the farm to be resilient, so there’s something there for generations to come.”
