2024- Brady & Lindsay Funk- Wymark
Brady was raised on a mixed grain and cattle farm in Consul, SK. After high school, Brady worked at John Deere in Swift Current, SK, and pursued his John Deere Agriculture Technician trade certificate through SIAST in Saskatoon, SK. After marrying Lindsay, Brady moved to Wymark, SK where he transitioned into the Hildebrand family farm to join Lindsay’s father and brother.
In 2015, Brady and Lindsay incorporated their business, Braylin Acres, and started a solo venture in 2021, while simultaneously continuing to farm with family. Driven by years of drought and a desire to efficiently grow excellent crops, Brady bought land near Lucky Lake, SK, and sought to implement irrigation strategies in keeping with the principles laid out in Genesis 2:6 “…but streams came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground.” Brady partnered with Southern Irrigation to develop 923 dryland acres into a fully-integrated sub-surface drip irrigation project, which sources water from the South Saskatchewan River. Since beginning in 2021, Brady’s irrigation project has become Canada’s largest sub-surface drip irrigation project. This has been a massive undertaking, but has proven successful in growing beautiful, high-yielding crops.
Brady and Lindsay live on an acreage at Wymark, SK, where they raise their three children. Additionally, Lindsay works as a Registered Nurse in Inpatient Mental Health, and runs a flower-farming business with her sister-in law. Brady and Lindsay love travelling with their family, coaching their children’s hockey, and are passionate about using their platform and giftings to help and encourage others.
