President’s Message

 

For over 30 years local family farms have been opening their farms and their love of growing to people that want to know where their food is coming from and to connect to the farmers and their families. More than any other time in recent history people are egar to learn about food security and engage with local growers. As a local producer and agritourism operator I am honored to serve as the President of this association. There has been a renewed drive for supporting local, and it is much appreciated. It is heartening to know that folks are still finding ways to make agriculture a viable life’s work, and that communities are showing up for them. Our goal remains the same: to bring healthy, wholesome, and sustainably produced local food and farm products to your home.

Local is truly what makes BC Farm Fresh producers unique. BC Farmers continue to work hard to bring you more farm-fresh products and experiences in a safe way so be sure to visit BCFarmFresh.com for a detailed calendar of happenings.

You can also connect with our members online, as many farms share their day-to-day updates on Facebook and Instagram. We collect these posts @BCFarmFresh to help you discover fresh harvests, recipes, and Agri-adventures near you.

We realize now, more than ever, that it is important to maintain and expand local production, processing, and storage to enhance local food security.

We hope you will spend some time with BC Farm Fresh growers and producers in the coming season, and we look forward to connecting you with the freshest food you can find.

Yours Truly

Gary Moran

President, FVFDMA
