My partner and I are currently staying with his Aunt on a farm near Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan is one of Canada’s prairie provinces and is dubbed the ‘bread basket of Canada’ due to its huge production of grains and the vast number of farmers. Truly, it is this province that feeds the most Canadians.

As some may know, Chris and I are avid gardeners and we had a beautiful garden oasis where we last lived our static life on the West Coast of Canada. We made our own healthy and fertile soil and grew some pretty amazing vegetables if I do say so myself.

We were last there in 2017 and have now experienced 6 years of full-time travel away from it.

If anyone were to ask us what we miss most about our static life, we would both say ‘our garden’ immediately. So, it is no surprise…
