“Our goal is to make a difference one farm at a time. By helping land owners establish sustainable and profitable farms we can have a positive impact on the environment as well as the health of Canadians.
Canada imports almost all of its fruit. Much of the fruit imported can be grown here in Canada and retailers and wholesaler pay a fair price for that fruit. Farmers and land owners need to know that they now have something viable to do with their land.”
