Episodes Notes

Harry Siemens is a household name in many parts of Manitoba. If you haven’t heard of him, it's because you don’t farm, ranch or grow vegetables. His show Siemens Says brought us together with the Farm Report where we learned about the agricultural community, commodity prices or just to see which way the wind was blowing!
