The Canadian Roundtable for Sustainable Beef would like to extend our congratulations to the 2024 Environmental Stewardship Award recipients John & Maria Duynisveld of Holdanca Farms from Wallace Bay, Nova Scotia. The Environmental Stewardship Award (TESA) is awarded annually by the Canadian Cattle Association during the Canadian Beef Industry Conference. The award has been recognizing the outstanding stewardship efforts of Canadian beef producers since 1996.
The award was presented in person by Mike Duguid, Co-Chair of the Canadian Cattle Association’s Environment Committee and Kellen Tait, Agriculture Services Leader and Food & Beverage Processing Leader with MNP to father-daughter duo John & Maria Duynisveld.
“The Duynisvelds truly demonstrate land and wildlife stewardship,” said Duguid. “Holdanca Farms is a testament to how responsible farming practices can go hand in hand with success and their importance to protecting and preserving our land and wildlife. We want to congratulate all provincial and regional nominees for their outstanding dedication to environmental stewardship and for setting a remarkable example for sustainable farming practices across Canada.”
The CRSB is proud to be a Foundational Partner of TESA alongside Ducks Unlimited Canada and Birds Canada. Thank you to the Platinum Sponsor, MN
