December 3rd marks the beginning of our annual 24-Hour Giving Tuesday fundraiser!⁠
⁠
We believe that investing in the next generation of farmers is essential for the future success and sustainability of our food systems. Our programs provide supports that new and young farmers need at every stage of their journey, whether they are curious about farming and wondering how to start, or are an established farm looking to expand.⁠
⁠
Every penny of your contribution helps support a new farmer's journey to success. Here’s what one of our Business Mentorship Network Mentees had to say about their experience: ⁠
⁠
"After finding Young Agrarians early in my farming career, and the many years since starting that journey, they have been my go-to for up-to-date information about the farming industry across BC. YA helped me in Business Mentorship, starting up my farming operation, finding mentors, meeting farm colleagues, meeting potential farm employees - and are one of the main reasons I believe my farm business has been, and is still, as successful as it is today. Many thanks go out to this organization for creating the community and support this industry so needs, I am ever indebted to them." - Robin Hunt, Big Rock Ranch⁠
