Celebrate Organic Week with The New Ontario Organic Brand!

The Organic Council of Ontario is excited to be launching its first ever consumer-facing marketing campaign promoting Ontario Organic products! The campaign will build brand awareness for local organic products and grow the organic market for those products in Ontario and beyond. Consumers will finally have help identifying local organic products and where to find them! 

We’d like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who gave us their feedback in the Ontario Organic logo survey and helped us shape the brand! The vast majority of respondents selected the logo you see above — the “farm friendly” brand option was by far the favourite.

The producers use a Rising Plate Meter to capture grass growth and record livestock movements. This presentation will explain how the group interact/support one another, some initial findings, as well as the benefits for the research team and our farm.

The purpose of the Profitable Pastures conference is to bring fresh ideas and new research results to Ontario grazing managers across the ruminant livestock sectors. These conferences have a major focus on pasture management
