2019 Food and Farming Champion: Lesley Kelly

The 4th Annual Food and Farming Champion Award was handed out recently as part of the Public Trust Summit in Saskatoon.
 
The award honours those who work to advocate for agriculture and inspire public trust in Saskatchewan's food industry.
 
Clinton Monchuk is Executive Director of Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan and says this year’s panel selected Lesley Kelly as this year’s winner.
 
“A lot of people probably know her from her handle, High Heels and Canola Fields. She has been an absolutely excellent advocate for Saskatchewan agriculture. She's done a lot, just recently with the Do More Ag Foundation talking a little bit more about mental health and mental well being and the agriculture sector. She is definitely a well deserving candidate for this award.”
