Small Talk Podcast With Hosts Anandi & Chris, Guest: Jim Eby, CEO & Founder of Eby Manor LTD, Season #1, Episode #4, April 28th, 2023

Jim Eby was born in 1952 in Kitchener, Onto his parents Howard and Annie Eby. Eby's parents were dairy farming at the time on my grandfather's farm in what is now the Stanley Park area of Kitchener .When the farm was sold for development his parents purchased a 167 acre farm near Conestogo. Jim has five siblings and attended elementary school in Conestogo and high school in Elmira. Jim Eby, has two brothers and the three of us developed a love for livestock and farming. For a number of years my father rented another farm near ours and my brothers and I farmed together with my dad .Eventually his brother John purchased his own farm and my brother David purchased a farm and my wife and Jim took ownership of the home farm. Since a young age Jim Eby has had a keen interest in marketing farm products directly to the public. As a result of the DFO (Milk Marketing Board) allowing provision for dairy farms to brand and market the milk they produce on their own farm, we took advantage of the opportunity , and in May,2012 we began the process of having our milk bottled at Hewitts Dairy Their brand is Eby Manor Golden Guernsey, and they currently sell their milk in many retail locations in Ontario as well as restaurants and cafes. They also have a busy dairy market on our farm. Our milk is produced by 60 registered guernsey cows on our farm, and additional milk is sourced from two other guernsey herds in our area. Their milk is higher in nutritional value than commercial milk, is more flavorful and is A2 protein which enables many dairy intolerant people to be able to enjoy it without adverse reactions. #jimeby #ebymanor #milk #smallbusiness #familyowed #local #dairy #waterlooontario #guest #smalltalkpodcast #anandicarrollwoolery #chrispomay #livestream #youtube #facebook #twitter #twitch #linkedin #audio #amazonmusic #iheartradio #spotify #anchorfm #stitcher #tunein #applepodcasts #googlepodcast #linkedin #radiopublic #pocketcasts #breaker #castbox
