Opening Comments
“You know the old saying: Red sky at night, sailor’s delight; red sky in morning, sailor take warning. But what about an aurora dancing across the Prairies? Aurora at night, Prairie skies alight; no warning needed this time! We’ve been seeing incredible photos pop up on Twitter, and we’d love to showcase yours too. Send us your best shots for a chance to be featured in our newsletter, on social media, and in future promotions! Please send your photos to: broker@johnstonsgrain.com

As featured in The Western Producer, this aurora display was photographed by Jewel Robson on Nov. 11 over the Robson farm north of Rosetown, Sask.
