A local agriculture program has been nominated for an Ontario-wide award, and been featured in the January edition of a national magazine.
Wellington County’s Experimental Acres is a program that works to support farms in their transition to regenerative agriculture.
Regenerative agriculture is defined by the National Resource Defence Council as farming methods that focus on “restoring soil and ecosystem health, addressing inequity, and leaving land, waters, and climate in better shape for the future.”
Experimental Acres is being featured in the January edition of Municipal World, a magazine popular across the country with municipal leaders.
CICW interviewed Wellington County’s ag coordinator and lead of the project Jordan Grigg, to learn more.
