The Do More Agriculture Foundation has hired a new Executive Director, Megz Reynolds.

She will lead the foundation's efforts to increase mental health awareness and continue to build the community and programs around mental health.

Himanshu Singh is co-founder of the Do More Agriculture Foundation and says Reynolds comes to the foundation with a wealth of experience, including government relations, advocacy and policy engagement in Canada and globally.

"Reynolds has always been a strong supporter of Do More Ag and played an important role behind the scenes since its inception four years ago. We are excited for her to champion AgTalk and to have her leading the foundation as it continues to grow in its ability to support and create community surrounding mental health in agriculture.”
