On June 4, 2015, Chicken Farmers of Ontario (CFO) will celebrate 50 years of supply management and providing Canadians with a safe, healthful, high quality, Ontario-grown chicken at Foodland Ontario’s Farmers’ Market Local Food Week event being held at Queen’s Park, Toronto.
Our Farms • Our Families • Our Future is CFO’s 50th Anniversary theme, demonstrating the importance of the system to the past, present and future growth of more than 1,100 farmers, suppliers and processors. Through the ongoing and relentless dedication of our family owned and operated farms, CFO continues to meet the domestic demands of Canadians for chicken. Watch the CFO 50th Anniversary commemorative video.
Since 1965, Ontario chicken farmers have supplied Canadians with high quality chicken through a stable supply management system which matches domestic production to domestic demand. The system helps ensure Canadians have access to locally grown, fresh chicken year round. Learn more about the supply management system.
