If you are considering becoming more involved with Grain Farmers of Ontario as a delegate, alternate, director or committee member these meetings are important to learn more about the organization. This is also a chance to get your voice heard and vote for representatives. As an incentive to get more people involved, all farmer-members who bring a first-time attendee to the Annual District meetings will receive a $25 Tim Hortons gift card.

Please note the date and location of your local meeting. All barley, corn, oat, soybean, and wheat producers are welcome.  To find a schedule of the meetings visit: www.gfo.ca/About-Us/Events/District-Meetings.
