The Family Farmer

If you're looking for an excuse to do a bit of online gaming this weekend, you might want to check out The Family Farmer. In this interactive simulation, you will become the owner of a Canadian farm. You'll have to manage daily life on the farm without running out of money, exhausting your fellow workers, or succumbing to the economic and political pressures of international conglomerate companies looking to build on your farm. By the time you're done, you'll have a better understanding of the daily struggles faced by small farmers and hopefully a little more respect for the hard-working individuals who rise at the crack of dawn every morning to put food on our grocery shelves.
