Transitioning Organic: Perspectives from Canadian Organic Farmers

Canada Organic Trade Association

Panel Discussion with organic farmers, moderated by Canadian Organic Growers (COG)

Organic Week 2022

Join us for this lively panel discussion to hear the insights, perspectives, and success stories of transitioning to organic from Canadian organic farmers from across the country. Participants on the panel have recently participated in COTA&#x27;s Organic Transition Fund and/or COG&#x27;s national organic farmer training and support programs including Regenerative Organic Oats and Growing Eastern Ontario Organically.

Meet the moderator:The moderator for this webinar is Stuart Oke, an Organic Farmer who alongside his wife and their business partner run Rooted Oak farm. Located outside St-Andre-Avellin, QC they produce Certified Organic vegetables and flowers which feed their CSA members and farmers market clients in Ottawa and the surrounding areas. Stuart is the current Youth President for the National Farmers Union, a voluntary membership organization representing thousands of farmers across Canada. When not growing or selling vegetables and flowers he spends his time advocating for policies and services which will support the next generation of farmers. He is a strong supporter of Organics, Agro-ecology, and the principles of Food Sovereignty and uses his farm and position with the National Farmers Union to promote them to eaters, farmers, and politicians alike.
