After three years of fundraising, the Rosedale Farm Trail Committee has realized its goal. In June, a new mower was purchased to cut the trail during the summer months. This new mower is a commercial grade machine making it more suitable for the rugged terrain on parts of the trail. It also has a 60 inch cut, which equals half the mowing time of the smaller old lawn tractor previously used on the trail. 

The committee has received financial help from a variety of sources. All this financial assistance made the purchase of the new mower from The Small Shop a reality in June. The Rosedale Farm Trail Committee is very grateful for the help. A huge “thank you” to all the contributors from the volunteer committee members. 

The Rosedale Farm Trail is located five miles (eight kilometres) west of Eden on Provincial Road #265. If you are looking for an awesome hike, with lovely views east from the Manitoba escarpment, be sure to take a drive to the trail. Enjoy your walk.
