BMO Honouring Ontario Farm Families At IPM

Farm families from Perth and Wellington counties will be among those recognised with BMO Ontario Farm Family Awards at this year's IPM.

The awards showcase the outstanding contributions made by farmers across the province.

This year's recipients include the Terpstra Family of Birch Lawn Farms Limited, Atwood and the Fraser Family of Fraegrove Holsteins of Elora.

The winning families will be treated to a day of Plowing Match events as well as a plaque presentation, lunch and a family photograph session.

BMO is also hosting a Kids' Zone daily at the match featuring fun, educational and interactive games and giveaways.

The second annual BMO Kids Day in on the Saturday of this year's event.

The 2016 IPM goes September 22nd to the 26th near Finch - which is in Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry in Eastern Ontario.
