This may be the best weekend of the year to spend in the country.

It’s Prairie Fun Days in Camrose County! One of the bus or self-driving stops available to you on Sunday, August 18, is Marshall Eco Farm, a minute east of St. Thomas Church near Duhamel. The Marshall family, who live off the grid, are dedicated, chemical-free market gardeners. They are equally well-known for their naturally-raised livestock. Their bountiful garden provides vegetables to chef Jesse Chambers at The Glens Grill, Montgomery Golf Course, Wetaskiwin. The family also conducts much-appreciated home deliveries to a roster of clients who strive for healthier eating. As well as a chance to taste fresh vegetables from their chemical-free garden, you will enjoy seeing, and perhaps touching, a chicken, turkey, pig or prized Scottish Highland cow or calf. You may talk to Myra (founder of the popular Myra Marshall Band and current musician/singer with the River Jacks), her multi-talented husband Colby and their energetic and hard-working children Gabriel and Lyric.
