GBFW Gives Farmers Chance To Hear From Other Farmers

Organizer Lorie Smith says the wrap-up panels are one of the highlites of each day at Grey Bruce Farmers Week.

The panels use producers and other experts to touch on a key topic of interest to the producers attending each of those days.

For example, the Goat Day panel is a virtual farm tour.

Sheep Day's panel is on Pasture Management.

Smith says it gives farmers a chance to hear other farmers talk about their operations.

Grey Bruce Farmers Week runs January 7th to the 13th at the Elmwood Community Centre.
