We're in Onaway — winter is a real season here. Firewood to the porch, salt to the walks, feed to the barn, all on cold, packed ground. Here's how we think about a wagon in winter, and what we won't promise.
Why this job is harder than it should be
Carrying loads on ice is how falls happen. Wheelbarrows bog down in snow, and starting gas equipment in deep cold is its own chore.

Tips from our farm
- Store and charge the battery where it stays above freezing; a battery left uncharged in freezing weather isn't covered by the warranty.
- Packed snow and plowed paths work better than deep, unpacked snow for any wheeled cart.
- Ask us about your winter terrain — weather and grade ratings are still being confirmed.

Common questions
Does it work in snow?
Packed and plowed surfaces are the best bet. Deep snow is hard for any wheeled cart, and we haven't published a weather rating yet, so we'll talk honestly about your conditions.
How should I care for the battery in winter?
Keep it charged and stored somewhere above freezing. A battery left uncharged in freezing weather is excluded from the warranty.
Can it plow snow?
No. It's a hauling wagon, not a plow. Use it to move salt, firewood, and supplies.
