Events
Farmland is the foundation of Ontario’s agri-food system, supporting local economies, food production, and the long-term resilience of communities. This session will explore why protecting farmland is essential to a thriving agri-food sector, with a focus on how the Greenbelt supports agricultural productivity, economic growth, and food security.
Are you looking for land, or curious about leasing land to a farmer? Young Agrarians has got another Land Sharing Workshop coming up on November 7th in Invermere, BC!
This session will explore tools and potential actions individuals can take in their own communities to continue post-election advocacy. It will also highlight resources within the Community Mobilization toolkit to help educate municipal Councils on pressing farmland loss issues, keep these topics active in local government, and effectively use available materials such as policy briefs, petition guides, letter-writing templates, and draft municipal resolutions.
