10th Anniversary Faces Of Farming Calendar Now Available

10 years and about 140 farmers and farm families later and the Faces of Farming calendar keeps on going.

The 2015 version is now available.

It's a project of Farm & Food Care Ontario.

The idea is to highlite the diversity of Ontario's farmers and farm families.

This year the calendar includes brothers who are community volunteers as well as dairy farmers, the winners of Ontario's 2014 Outstanding Young Farmer competition and a race car driver who grows broccoli on his family farm.

Spokesperson Kelly Daynard says they're always on the lookout for great spokespeople for the agriculture industry.

The 2015 Faces of Farming calendar is available through the Farm & Food Care Ontario website.

It's also being handled by a number of retail outlets.

There's a listing of those outlets also on the Farm & Food Care website.

Farm & Food Care Ontario's Kelly Daynard says they've showcased almost 140 different farmers and farm families from across the province since the calendar was first introduced.
