The LeBlanc family, avid homesteaders from North Tetagouche, N.B., have not made a trip to the grocery store in three months and don't plan on stepping inside a store for the entire winter.

While many Canadians grapple with the rising cost of groceries, the LeBlancs are completely unaffected.

"Someone told me how prices went up. We weren't really aware," said Robin LeBlanc.

Nice to see a story about someone in my neck of the woods.  Although living on a farm would go a long way towards avoiding the grocery store.  It's great that they barter/trade for quite a few things.
