Bar 5 Farms is a family run farm located in Markdale, ON in the beautiful Grey Highlands. We have a long history in breeding premium green tag verified black and red angus beef. All our beef is raised without the use of antibiotics, growth hormones and steroids, and is fed a 100% vegetarian diet. We believe in continuing the traditions of ethical, responsible animal welfare treatment and sustainable stewardship of the land.

We produce all natural cold pressed oils according to approved and modern standards, exclusively within our own control.

The Beaver Valley Nordic Ski Club (BVNSC) has over 10 km of groomed, track-set country ski trails for members to enjoy. Trails run along the top of the escarpment, through Crown Land (managed by MNRF), Grey Sauble Conservation (GSC) land, and private properties that the Club has permission to use. All trails have been GPS mapped and marked and are groomed and track-set through by the Beaver Valley Ski Club (BVSC). Trail junction signage ensures safe and easy navigation for skiers. The Nordic Club is constantly maintaining and improving the trails in the off season for the best grooming and track-setting possible.

From artist's website - "A couple of years after the advent of the new millennium, I set aside my writing pen, picked up a paintbrush and since that moment have preferred this medium for self-expression and creativity. Through brush strokes on the canvas, I endeavour to convey my feelings of seeing the beauty in the simple things around me. I seem to have a preference for items that most people pass by without a second glance; things that are often old and have fallen into decay (much like myself!), the aged patina of blistered paint and skewed structures, furrows in a field, a line of laundry. My loose, free flowing style leans toward the abstract but still has a clear story to tell. A certified yoga instructor, I strive to invoke my reverence for life into my art. A lifelong resident of Grey County, I draw from the area's plethora of everyday miracles. I find being an artist - the written not so much as the visual - is a life of solitude and being given the opportunity to share my work is a way to attempt to connect with others. It's an opening of the doors to my soul and initiating an invitation to my personal world. I am most happiest when I am creating."
