Event Description

The following was posted by Marty Derks (Kemptville Grad) Aggie 2008

"As many of you have heard Kemptville College is scheduled to close in 2015.

The Ontario Federation of Agriculture is hosting a discussion for all farmers and everyone is invited.

This is intended to be an information and discussion meeting about moving forward to create a comprehensive plan. This is not a rant session.

We are looking forward to hearing from our local farmers to develop a committee to move forward.

We hope you can make it out on Saturday March 15 at 10:30am at the WB George Center."
