This past Sunday, we had the pleasure of hosting the 1st in a series of Grow a Farmer days organized by ACORN (Atlantic Canadian Organic Regional Network) and the SOIL apprenticeship program. The workshop we held here was called How We Got Started which was mostly about how we moved from apprenticing or working on other farms to starting our own farm business. Hopefully, to inspire more young people to see farming as a viable (and not crazy) career choice. We had a really great turnout and met really cool people and had a great time. We’re excited for the rest of the Grow a Farmer days happening this season (all with a different theme) and hope to meet many more cool people!
