Project Name: Summer BBQ & SMV Exchange
Project summary and highlights:
Haldimand hosted a summer BBQ at the local community centre. This BBQ was free for OFA members and members were encouraged to bring in an old SMV sign to be replaced with a new sign. We had 100 signs in total to exchange
Use of funds and partner contributions besides the Federation:
Funds were used to cover part of the cost of the SMV signs. We had J.D. Heaslip donate the other half of the funds for the SMV signs.
This year we branched out to ag businesses in our community for additional sponsorship. Sponsors also got to attend our BBQ.
HFA paid $10.75 a sign, Heaslips paid the other half.
Lasting and relevant impact to the OFA membership:
Engage in meaningful discussions with HFA / OFA Representatives, fellow farmers and community leaders. Share experiences, learn about HFA and our current activities within the community to drive positive change in the agricultural landscape.
