Our Mission is to promote healthy and active farmland in east central Ontario. In order to accomplish this, we strive to:
- Support farmers in diversification and expansion to ensure that farmland stays in production
- Attract new farmers to the region
- Ensure access to local farmer training opportunities
- Provide opportunities for new and establishing farmers to integrate into the agricultural community through mentorship, internship and events
- Support access to farmland and financing by new farmers
- Engage farmland owners who are non-farmers in active use of their land for agricultural purposes
- Create partnerships and outreach that result in on-the ground farm stewardship in the region.
