Make your voice count – Vote for your next Zone 10 Provincial Director
OFA is guided by an 18-member board of directors — Ontario farmers who are elected by their peers to represent grassroots interests at the provincial level.
This year, members in Durham, Peterborough and Kawartha Lakes/Haliburton will help shape the future of local agriculture by voting for the Zone 10 Director. The elected representative will bring your local concerns to the provincial board table and serve a three-year term starting after the 2025 Annual General Meeting, taking place November 25–26.
Your vote ensures strong local representation and a voice for your farm community.
