Like innovative farming? Join BCYF for their upcoming DELTA FARM TOURS, which will be held on Saturday, March 7, 2015!
This tour showcases some of the most progressive young farmer operations right in your backyard (and if Delta isn’t in your backyard…we’ll get you there for free).
Come and meet other young farmers from around the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley. There is no cost to attend, but space is limited, so make sure you email info@bcyf.ca to reserve your spot by March 1, 2015.
