Freeman's Country Supply is proud to be a family owned and operated business.
Our family serving yours, since 1990!
Meet the family:
Duane & Joanne
Duane likes tequila and watching the sun go down. He also enjoys spoiling his grandkids, and spending his spare time fly-fishing, hunting, curling, skiing, and playing hockey with his men's league. He's remarkably good at everything he does, including an uncanny ability to nap anytime, anywhere.
Joanne runs the show and keeps us all motivated. She has a supernatural way with numbers, so the rest of us are grateful that Joanne is in charge of orchestrating the books and accounting. She makes sure everyone pays up and gets paid. Joanne likes eating organically, keeping fit, gardening, singing, and LOVES being a Grandma. Duane & Joanne are the two retail pioneers of the family, and pretty much know it all.

Nolan & Kendra
Having moved from the Douglas Lake Ranch in July of 2011, Nolan & Kendra bring a fresh perspective as partners in the family business.
Nolan is Duane and Joanne's oldest son. He loves hunting and fishing, golf, hockey & curling. If you have any questions about feed, fencing, or basically anything to do with ranching, he's your guy. He completed his pre-vet in university prior to cowboying in Australia, Arizona and Douglas Lake, BC, and knows a thing or two about livestock. He has become a bit of an expert at our roofing quotes, stove inquiries, and so much more...
Kendra grew up on a dairy farm in Chilliwack, and in her free time she loves to ride and train horses, chase their daughter around, ski, fish, and play a little hockey. She volunteers as Secretary on the board for the local minor hockey association, and as President of the local elementary school PAC. Kendra has a diploma in Equine Science from Olds College, experience in the competitive horse industry, and certifications in clerical skills. She spends more time in front of a computer than she'd care to, and enjoys every opportunity to interact with our customers instead.

sara
Sara is amazing. It may be because she's our cousin, but she quietly reads our minds and has tasks done before we even realize they need doing. Sara has a green thumb and grows a robust garden every year. If you'd ever like advice on your veggie or flower crop, definitely ask this kind lady. She'll politely tell it like it is. She also loves wild birds and has an incredible way with children, as anyone who has had kids in her preschool can contest.
Sara is also the best forklift driver at Freeman's. Do not let Nolan convince you otherwise. We are grateful for her every day, and we'd be lost in the store without her.

Jennifer
Jen is the newest team member at Freeman's! She may as well be related considering how long we've known her, and how much we love her. Jen grew up right here in Rock Creek on her beautiful and historic family ranch. She is no stranger to the world of agriculture, and has a passionate interest in horticulture and invasive species prevention. We are so lucky to have her wealth of knowledge to add to our arsenal, and she an excellent resource for pasture seed application and management.
Jen is VERY well traveled, and extremely personable. She always has a great smile and a positive perspective, and is quick to greet and help everyone who walks through the doors at Freeman's. Jen is a bit of a foodie, loves to tackle new tasks, and is very community and environmentally conscious.

Gunnar
What's not to love about Gunnar? To know him is to love him. Considering his experience in the military and as another local business owner, we are SO fortunate to have him on board. He's semi-retired, so unfortunately for us, is only part-time. If you're lucky enough to come in on a day that he's in the store, you're in for a treat.
Gunnar loves his family. He is a doting husband to his incredible wife, a proud parent to four smart and successful children, and an adoring Grandpa as well. Gunnar has skillfully refurbished his gorgeous home, loves sports, mixes fantastic cocktails, and enjoys traveling whenever given the chance.

andrew
Andrew is the Englishman who brings an air of sophistication to our rural establishment. If given the opportunity, he will quickly make efforts to get to know everyone who walks through the door. His quick wit and hospitality make him a very fun person to have around.
Andrew prides himself as a Bridesville sheep farmer, where he lives in a beautiful heritage home with his beloved wife. He loves animals, and is the first one to greet any visiting pet in the store. As a man of many talents, Andrew is a gifted photographer and journalist. Despite his strong preference for English tea over coffee, we're grateful he chooses to be on our team.

Norma
Norma has a dazzling smile, an infectious laugh, and is adored by all who meet her. She grew up on a farm in Manitoba, and if you need to know anything about chickens, Norma’s your gal. She knows her poultry!
Norma likes chocolate, growing beautiful and delicious things in her garden, feeding and caring for her pets and livestock, and volunteered as a passionate Key Leader with 4H for many years.
She has been with us since 2007, but much to our disappointment, Norma has made the tough decision to retire, and is deeply missed by us all. We always look forward to her visits!
