Learn agri-tourism from the best

Two of Canada’s best-known agri-tourism operators will give a workshop on Feb. 28 at the Lethbridge Agriculture Centre.

Mark Saunders and Angela Grant Saunders started a U-pick strawberry patch at their farm near Ottawa in the mid-1970s and now have activities ranging from mazes and attractions for kids to weddings and dinners.

“Saunders Farm has grown and redefined what a family farm can be,” said Colin Gosselin of Alberta Agriculture. “They have had over one million guests, and now welcome nearly 60,000 people each year to their Haunting Season event.”
