Farm safety day back at Battlefords Agricultural Society

Kids in the Battlefords area will have a chance to learn some helpful tips they need to know about staying safe on the farm, during the upcoming Progressive Agricultural Safety Day.

The event will take place from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. May 11 at the AgriPlex and AgriVilla buildings, at the exhibition grounds in North Battleford.

Battlefords Agricultural Society general manager Jocelyn Ritchie said this is the first time the organization has held the event since before the pandemic situation, so she was looking forward to offering it again.

“It’s a good program for the school kids,” she said. “They learn about all kinds of safety – from farm safety, water safety, ATV safety, chemical safety – all kinds of different safety aspects.”
