Parkland Ventures is located near Humboldt, Saskatchewan, Canada, in a region known by first settlers as the 'sure crop district'.  We are in the 'black soil zone' where soil texture is made up of a loam to loam clay, and cereals and oilseeds are known to thrive 

​

​

Our Farm

Parkland Ventures consists of 17,000 acres / 6,880 hectares of farmland split between canola, oats, barley, and wheat

​

The weather in our region is notoriously variable, and every season there are a new set of challenges to overcome.  With advanced systems, a deeply malleable approach, and all the skills and knowledge needed to adapt to new conditions, we take pride in our capacity to reliably perform, no matter what is thrown our way

​

We are members of the Wester Canadian Wheat Growers Association, and sit on the Western Grains Research Foundation board
