August Outreach Update

Thank you to the Barrie Farmers’ Market and the Patagonia Store in downtown Toronto for hosting the Ontario Farmland Trust in August. We had a blast talking with market goers and customers! Almost 100 passionate and curious folks stopped to chat about the importance of protecting our precious and limited farmland and to learn about the work of land trusts.

OFT was happy to offer a raffle prize donated by the Patagonia store for those that visited our booth in the store. As a result, 16 visitors graciously donated to OFT for a chance to win Patagonia’s 40L Black Hole Duffel. We were able to raise $150 which will directly support our mission in protecting farmland forever.
