Host farm registration for Alberta Open Farm Days closes April 30

Farms and ranches that want to be a part of Open Farm Days will need to register by the end of the month to participate in this year’s festivities in August.

The event is a two-day celebration of Alberta agriculture that gives people insight into how food gets to their table through interactive experiences on farms and ranches across the province.

Tim Carson, CEO of Alberta Open Farm Days, says so far, 117 farms have signed up to participate in the 2023 edition.

“You don’t necessarily have to have your full program and exactly what you are doing in line and all prepared just yet but getting into the program will be a tremendous asset for you,” Carson said to producers that are on the fence of registering for the event.

Presented by Joanna Follings, Cereals Specialist with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Agribusiness (OMAFA).

Joanna explores triticale’s potential as a high-yielding forage crop, with a focus on agronomic management practices to optimize performance in livestock systems. Comparisons with other cereals and strategies for integration into double-cropping systems are also discussed.

The purpose of the Forage Focus conference is to bring fresh ideas and new research results to Ontario forage producers across the ruminant livestock and commercial hay sectors.
