Grain Farmers of Ontario is recognizing the hard work and long hours put in by our farmer- members during the harvest season. Three farmers are being chosen at random from subscribers to the Bottom Line for our thank a grain farmer contest. Last week, Steve McCabe, manager of member relations, visited the farm of our second winner who lives in District 11.
