So I was looking for old shows and I came across this: images.app.goo.gl/PBwBPRKrSfCXCtKo8 The show was called "Prairie Berry Pie" and it was about this guy who transformed a grain elevator into like a house/kichen thing? And lessons were taught. It aired on Global from 2000-2004, That image is from a site about the puppeteer, (who also did work for other shows like Chicken Minute and Fraggle Rock) So it is possible maybe they know more about the show, but aside from a few images, this show appears to be lost:0 And, I know I watched mostly Treehouse, Ytv, Teletoon, Family, and Cbc as a kid, something about those puppets seems.. oddly familiar... Does anyone else feel the same way??

Honestly i have never heard of it it sounds a little odd but then again I learned in my art class that offset and different brings about interest in a subject
It debuted in November 1999 on Saskatchewan Communications Network
"Brenda" presumably hosted season 1, while "David" took over starting in season 2.
Season 2 didn't begin until November 2002, and that aired on APTN (in addition to Global, etc?).
Got translated into four other languages, including Cree, French, and German (I'd be shocked if German was true, but really any of them seems unlikely).
As for me, I grew up in Newfoundland and we got this on NTV (which carries programming from Global and CTV). I watched this show A LOT because that was around the time when my family didn't have cable, so I only had access to the two over-the-air channels (NTV and CBC). Hated watching it but there was nothing else on. I was 8-years-old in 2000, which is older than the pre-school audience the article states they were aiming for. That's probably why I disliked it so much. I might have been watching up until 12-years-old, even.
It first showed up on NTV's schedule on August 7, 2000 on Saturdays at 8:30AM. In 2002, it was updated to Saturdays and Sundays at 8:00AM. In December 2004, it was coming on Saturdays and Sundays at 8:00AM and 8:30AM. In March 2005, it was removed from the schedule.
It felt like it was on all the damn time, but I guess that's just because I didn't like it.
I don't really remember David hosting it. Just Brenda, so maybe I stopped watching (did get cable at some point) or maybe NTV/Global didn't air the David episodes.
I don't have time to dedicate to a search, but wanted to archive what I know.
