Born in Winchester, Hampshire, in England, he immigrated to Canada in his late twenties, settling first in Ontario and then in Alberta, where he farmed. He soon became involved in the United Farmers of Alberta (UFA), a farmers` lobby organization that was in the process of becoming a political party, eventually becoming the organization`s vice president. Though he did not run in the 1921 provincial election, the first in which the UFA fielded candidates, Greenfield was the party`s eventual choice to serve as Premier when the UFA won a majority of the seats that year.
