Fresh snow means it will be at least two more weeks before a farmer in the Red River Valley can begin planting.

Vance Johnson grows corn, soybeans, wheat and sugarbeets near Breckenridge, Minnesota and spoke to Brownfield Wednesday morning.

“Well as I sit here right now we’ve got a good mountain snow coming, it’s huge flakes and starting to cover the grass. We haven’t turned a wheel yet, we’re still waiting for weather to warm up and dry out.
