Event Description

Spring seeding is just around the corner. Make sure you are familiar with the rules of the road for farm equipment and trucks before you hit the road with your equipment this year.

Join the Norfolk Soil and Crop Improvement Association for an evening with Sam Hardie of the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) as he reviews and updates our membership on these rules. These MTO update and information sessions have proven popular when hosted in other municipalities and we are confident our members won't want to miss this evening.

Free to all OSCIA members.

Norfolk SCIA memberships available onsite for $30 per year.

Refreshments available.
