Food Day set to be celebrated across Canada

Farmers and ranchers across the country will be celebrated this weekend.

Sunday has been declared Food Day Canada where those who plant, harvest, and make our meals will be recognized.

This is the 20th edition of the day, marking one of the largest and longest-running celebrations of those who work in the food industry.

“Food Day Canada serves as a link that connects us all through the joy of food,” said David Marit, Saskatchewan’s Agriculture Minister. “We extend our recognition to all the hardworking and dedicated individuals who play a vital role in feeding the world. I encourage everyone to take a moment to share their personal food experiences and celebrate Canadian food.”

I am out in a harvested soybean field with a farm that is loading and spreading chicken litter. They are using their Deere 644K Loader to scoop and load a Bunning Spreader that is pulled with one of the farms John Deere 8RX 410 Tractors. Chicken litter is an excellent organic fertilizer that will be used on next years corn crop.
