You will find ‘The Great One’ just sixteen miles west of Dauphin, Manitoba.  This ‘Great One,’ however, has always been a resident of Manitoba and never played in the NHL.  Like the Great One, this quarter also plays at an exceptionally high level and stands out amongst its peers. 

Located just four miles southeast of the urban centre of Gilbert Plains, ‘The Great One’ is comprised of 160 acres of some of the most fertile land in all of Canada.  If anyone questions that point, you may want to direct them to a government soil map and then, to back it up, suggest they take a spade and do some digging.  The quarter is fabulously deep in topsoil and high in organics with virtually no rocks.  Located in the Parkland Region of Manitoba, ‘The Great One’ offers almost infinite flexibility regarding cropping, including grains, oilseeds, and speciality crops.  The entire quarter offers excellent drainage with a gentle southern slope.  The handful of acres that make up the lower areas can be cropped in dry years and, with a bit of work, potentially eliminated.  

Like the other Great One, this ‘Great One’ is sure to work tirelessly for its new owner and rise to the occasion when asked at the start of each season.  The Municipality of Gilbert Plains is deep in good land, but even against this backdrop, ‘The Great One’ makes the All-Star team for the Municipality year after year.  Speaking of All-Stars, the late owner of this property, Lloyd Yerama, won Manitoba Provincial Championships as both a curler and a baseball player.  His multitasking didn’t stop here: he successfully transitioned the farm from a well-respected purebred operation to an innovative grain operation later on.
