Hi Linda,

The London Growing Forward 2 Information Session date has been pushed back to June 3rd.

Agriculture and Agrifood Canada has said: "The Growing Forward 2 Client Information Sessions have been re-scheduled.  We’ve been working together with representatives from across the agri-food sector to ensure that the GF2 program information meets the expectations and needs of Ontario farm businesses.  Some of the earlier information session dates have been pushed back in order to provide you with the up-to-date details and the fullest information available. We are offering a variety of afternoon and evening sessions in regions across the province. For anyone unable to attend a session, our website will also be updated with information as we prepare for the first intake date of applications in June."

In fact, having carryover seed on hand often presents a strategic advantage for both seed growers and farmers. The Alberta-British Columbia Seed Growers’ Association (ABCSG) has offered a carryover listing service since around 2009, before the Canadian Seed Growers’ Association (CSGA) added carryover capability to the national Seed Locator in 2018.
