AFSC’s Grassroots Fund supports 4-H at the local level

For over 100 years, 4-H has been an integral part of Alberta’s agricultural landscape, teaching youth about resourcefulness, cooperation, determination, and leadership. Agriculture Financial Services (AFSC) is proud to help support 4-H in Alberta through post-secondary scholarships, support for a variety of provincial programs and our 4-H Alberta Grassroots Fund.

Through this fund, any new or existing 4-H Alberta sanctioned club can apply for up to $300 to be used to support activities, programs, events or initiatives that fall into the areas of Agriculture/Agri-Food, Education and Outreach, and Community Well-Being. Funds are distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis until all funds are allotted.

Step into the world of dairy farming, where technology and tradition come together to produce premium milk and cheese. In modern dairy farming, cows are raised in climate-controlled barns, monitored by smart sensors that track health and milk quality. Automated milking machines and robotic cleaners ensure hygiene and efficiency at every stage of dairy farming. Once collected, the fresh milk is transported to advanced facilities, where the dairy farming process continues — pasteurization, fermentation, and cheese making powered by precision equipment. From lush pastures to sterile factories, dairy farming represents a revolution in how the world’s finest dairy products are made — sustainable, efficient, and delicious.
