Vice President and Central Alberta Representative

Ward Middleton and his wife Jo-Anne operate as Midmore Farms, managing 750 acres just North of Morinville, Alberta. After purchasing the family farm from Ward's father in 1994, they became certified organic in 1999 as part of a business strategy to make agriculture the primary source of income for their family.  Ward worked off the farm in oilfield and forestry until 2009.  Regular crops at Midmore Farms include wheat, barley, rye, peas, canola, flax and sweet clover seed, with some less traditional crops such as borage, and milk thistle seed.  Midmore Farms is also a member of the Woodlot Association of Alberta and their farm also includes a 1/4 section custom grazing silvipasture, and an 80 acre managed woodlot.
