The Huron County Soil and Crop Improvement Association made a big donation to a local food bank.
In honour of World Soil Day on December 5, the HSCIA decided to donate $5,000 to the Huron County Food Bank Distribution Centre.
According to a release, the donation was made possible "thanks to the work of agricultural producers who volunteer at the farm and by harvesting and selling the crop at the Huron County Demonstration Farm at the Huronview complex south of Clinton."
The Huron County Soil and Crop Improvement Association is able to plant the crops and conduct trials, including cover crops, at the Huronview Demonstration Farm thanks to a lease with the County of Huron.
