Calling all Farmers: be an Open Farm Days host


Did you know (if you are not from Alberta) that Alberta Open Farm Days is a province-
wide open house, of sorts. This year, on August 22 and 23rd, farmers and ranchers across the province will be invited to open their gates and share their story! 
 
The third annual Alberta Open Farm Days offers visitors a fun way to experience rural life. People can enjoy farm-to-table culinary events on the Saturday and free admission to farm tours across the province on the Sunday. Last year there were 61 host farms and 17 culinary events. 
 
Registration to be a host is now easier thanks to an online registration form available at www.albertafarmdays.com. The application deadline for host farms is April 30.
 
Their Facebook page is on https://www.facebook.com/openfarmdays
