The farm is situated on 140 acres east of Winnipeg at the edge of the Boreal Plains region. The land is a mix of forest dominated by Balsam Poplar, Jack Pine, and Black Spruce trees. Most of the farm is not cultivated, making it a perfect habitat for deer, coyotes, beaver, squirrels and many different species of birds. Cooks Creek runs through the property and much of the land is a thriving wetland - welcoming to Sand Cranes, downy woodpeckers, swallows, Canada goose, hummingbirds and cedar waxwings.

Long Way Homestead currently has laying hens, a flock of Shetland Sheep  and Merino cross sheep and two llamas. In the summer we raise chickens and heritage breed pigs for meat.  As guiding values for how we treat our animals on the farm we strive for:

• Providing access to fresh seasonal vegetation for all our animals. (Pasture Raised)

• No growth hormones or antibiotics

• We source our grain locally and avoid known GMO grains

• Use permaculture principles in all we do on the farm, we are working towards a regenerative agricultural plan for the farm as we study and learn about the benefits and strategies of regenerative practices.
