GFO: Grains In Action

‎My name is Amanda Craven and I am a participant in Grain Farmers of Ontario's Grains in Action.

I'm a third year ag science student studying at the university of Guelph. I grew up on our family farm in Eberts Ontario where we farm cash crops and a little bit of vegetable crop.

‎My self and 24 others are participating in Grains in Action from Monday, January 30 to Thursday, February 2. It is a program for young agriculture leaders to gain knowledge about the grain value chain, meet industry contacts and build relationships with like-minded people. This conference allows participants to learn about the demand for and end uses of crops. To keep up-to-date on what is happening this week follow #GrainsInAction on Twitter.
