AFSC’s 2024 holiday closure

AFSC is proud of Alberta’s producers, and we’re honoured to work alongside you as you grow the province’s agriculture industry.

We recognize that being a farmer can be a 24-7 occupation, and we want to share AFSC’s upcoming holiday closure and year-end deadlines so you can include them in your plans.

Holiday closure
All AFSC offices, including the Client Care Centre, will be closed from 2 p.m., December 24, 2024 through January 1, 2025. We will reopen on Thursday, January 2, 2025.
