Event Description

Hosted by Hylander Farms in Tecumseh.

The breakfast part of the event is now sold out. Those who are interested can still attend to tour the farm and the exhibits.

Breakfast on the Farm provides a unique opportunity for farmers and non‐farming Ontarians to have a conversation about food and farming. It gives Ontarians the chance to visit a real, working farm, provides a showcase for agriculture and gives non-farmers the opportunity to have their questions answered by real farmers.

After being treated to an all-Ontario breakfast featuring eggs, pancakes, sausage and more, visitors will be able to see beef cattle and farm machinery, and will have the opportunity to have their questions answered by helpful farm experts. Interactive stops around the farm will include many displays, activities and exhibits that showcase other types of farms in Ontario.

The event will run from 9:00 am until 1:00 pm, with breakfast being served until 11:30 a.m. The farm tours wrap up by 1:00 p.m. It is a free event, though preregistration is required; the first 2,000 visitors are guaranteed breakfast.

Saskatchewan Presses Ottawa to Act on Canola Anti-Dumping Duties

Saskatchewan leaders are urging swift federal action after China slapped steep anti-dumping duties on Canadian canola, threatening one of the province’s most important industries. Premier Scott Moe, along with Agriculture Minister Daryl Harrison and Trade Minister Warren Kaeding, met Thursday in Saskatoon with federal Agriculture Minister Heath MacDonald, Parliamentary Secretary Kody Blois, and industry leaders to address the escalating trade dispute. China’s government imposed a 75.8% duty on Canadian canola seed earlier this month, in addition to existing 100% tariffs on canola oil and meal. The measures, widely viewed as retaliation for Canada’s tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, cut directly into Saskatchewan’s farm economy. “The Government of Saskatchewan condemns China's punitive tariffs on canola, which directly impact Saskatchewan families,” Moe said in a statement. “This is an urgent situation for producers, and we must work together to find immediate solutions.” Sa

Just Minor Progress for Alberta Harvest

Alberta producers made incremental harvest progress this past week, with just 2% of major crops in the bin as of Tuesday, a modest gain of one point from the previous week and well behind the five- and 10-year averages of 8% and 6%, respectively. The latest weekly crop report on Friday said regional progress is led by the South at 6% harvested as of Tuesday, supported by warm and dry conditions. The Peace Region follows at 4% complete, while all other regions remain below 2%. Notably, the Peace is slightly ahead of its historical average, while other regions trail seasonal benchmarks. Among major crops, dry peas are furthest advanced at 17% harvested. Barley sits at 3%, while spring wheat is at 1%. Oats and canola remain below 1%. Amid the sluggish start to harvest, crop conditions remain strong. The report said 64% of major crops were rated good to excellent as of Tuesday, holding steady from last week and well above the five- and 10-year averages of 50% and 55%. The Central Reg
