Ep. 3: Land Tenure & Generational Transition

At the end of the Episode 2, Karen Cox mentions that the boom in oil and gas extraction throughout the region has boosted land prices, creating challenges for new farmers in their search for land tenure. This episode picks up with Eric and Brianna Blend, who are experiencing this issue firsthand. For farmers like Eric Freeland and William Thiele, who inherited their farmland, concern lies instead with who will take over the farm, and the family legacy, after they retire.
