Today we are going to speak with  Harry Stoddart  a sixth generation farmer in Ontario, Canada. He farms 560 certified organic acres in the Kawartha Lakes region within the shadow of the Greater Toronto Area Harry’s farming career started with buying his parents conventional confinement hog farm. He managed a major expansion – doubling the sow herd and tripling the land base in three years. He also managed to narrowly avoid bankruptcy due to the combination of a devastating disease outbreak and the hog market crash in ’98. He then spent 7 years working as a management consultant for some of the largest global consulting organizations before returning to full-time farming.
