OFA’s 2023 regional meeting season is underway. For the next three months, meetings will be held across the province, engaging our members in discussions about the highest priority issues, unique opportunities to get involved.
On the fence about attending? Here are three reasons why we welcome OFA members to get involved and attend these meetings:
Learn more about your local Federation – Find out about the various activities, events and programs your Federation is involved in to help promote agriculture in your local community. Meet your local provincial director and member service representative for OFA updates.
Bring your voice – Regional meetings offer an open space for members to bring forward questions, concerns, issues and priorities to your local Federation leadership and to the OFA.
Vote for leadership and representation – Eligible voting members will elect local representatives for positions at the OFA Policy Advisory Council, and as delegates to the 2023 Annual General Meeting, November 21-22, Toronto.
As a grassroots organization, we value the input of our members. With a unified voice, our local federations and provincial OFA will continue to help us make a difference in growing, supporting and shaping Ontario’s dynamic agriculture industry.
