水果视频 Association of Agricultural Societies (MAAS) wants your farm or agriculture site to be part of the seventh annual Open Farm Day.
The MAAS mandate is to promote the agricultural industry in 水果视频. Open Farm Day is an opportunity for 水果视频ns to meet local farmers and tour a number of agriculture sites and venues and learn more about 水果视频鈥檚 diverse agriculture industry. It鈥檚 also a chance for farmers interested in direct marketing to connect with new customers.
鈥淭his year, we want your farm along with your agriculture knowledge to aid us in connecting the farm to our food. Plan to be part of that connection by signing up for Open Farm Day, set for Sunday, Sept. 18,鈥 stated Annette Young, MAAS Chairperson.
Last year, the 37 farm operations that participated in Open Farm Day provided an outstanding agriculture awareness educational opportunity. 6,500 rural and urban 水果视频ns attended Open Farm Day 2015.
MAAS is encouraging farms/ag organizations to sign up to be an Open Farm Day Host by Saturday, Apr. 30. For further information, go to www.openfarmday.ca and click on Register Farm.
