Growing up in Brandon, Manitoba, Karly was surrounded by a close-knit family who encouraged healthy living. Every year, her parents planted a huge vegetable garden which they harvested every fall so they could enjoy healthy produce all year round. Fresh produce from the garden was used to make jams, salsa, and canned goods.
