Potato Farm Saved by Public Support | Vancouver News

from Vancouver News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A massive potato farm in Surrey, run by the Heppell family and leased from the government, faces an uncertain future as three First Nations tribes claim ancestral land rights. With over 90,000 people rallying to save the farm — a vital local food source — and Canadian leaders urging citizens to buy domestic goods to protect jobs, the government has granted a one-year lease extension. This small victory keeps the farm alive amid bigger debates over land, trade, and cultural heritage. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
