Filling the niche in
the Christmas
market is an
important part of
the year-round
marketing plan for
Susanne and Bill
Robinson at
Robinson's Maple
Products. They,
and two other
couples who take
their farm
products directly
to consumers, tell
how Christmas
giving provides an opportunity for them to
introduce their products to new customers.

THE MAGAZINE OF THE AGRICULTURAL INDUSTRY
Randy and Chris Baker have plenty of unusual sights on
their Kincardine -area farm, like their long -horned Scottish
Highland cattle. The cattle are an ancient breed, dating
back 2,000 years. They're hardy and can winter outside
even in western Ontario winters.
