Province offers training to new farmers

Alberta Agriculture and Forestry is hosting the Getting into Farming information session on Oct. 18 in Airdrie.

“The session is aimed at those thinking about getting into a farming business and making it their primary source of income,” said new-venture specialist Kathy Bosse.

“It’ll provide information about farming at a pretty high level to give a solid overview for those who want to learn about opportunities in the industry. Participants will get a ‘taste of agriculture’ as well as information to help them establish a successful farming enterprise.”

The cost is $25 and includes lunch. To register, call the Ag-Info Centre at 1-800-387-6030 by Oct. 11.
