Meet Brendan Friesen: I am from Blumenfeld, M.B. I was raised on a grain farm that grows primarily edible beans and corn. I am passionate about my faith, farming and various sports. I am graduating from University of Manitoba with my agricultural diploma in crop management this spring and I look forward to returning to the family farm after graduation.
