Alberta’s ‘Buy Local’ campaign supports producers amid global uncertainty

The Government of Alberta has a new campaign, titled ‘Buy Local,’ encouraging consumers to support the province’s agriculture and food industry by choosing local products.

The campaign aims to encourage people to buy from Alberta’s farmers, ranchers, and food processors who provide safe and nutritious food for Albertans, Canadians, and the world.

Minister of Alberta Agriculture and Irrigation, RJ Sigurdson, emphasized the importance of supporting local producers.

“It’s time to let these Albertans know we have their back. Now, more than ever, we need to shop local and buy made-in-Alberta products. The next time you are grocery shopping or go out for dinner or a drink with your friends or family, support local to demonstrate your Alberta pride,” explained Sigurdson. “We are pleased tariffs don’t impact the ag industry right now and will keep advocating for our ag industry.”
