Grain Farmers of Ontario’s website has become an industry leader in providing breaking News, crop updates, market information, the latest agricultural research.
Now, the group’s website has launched a community page at www.gfo.ca/community to create an area of interest to the general public looking for general farm News, and links to products made from corn, soy beans, and wheat. Visitors will also find trivia and general grain information, book reviews, and recipe sharing.
The new community page will also feature a blog titled Growing Grain. Its focus will be something a little different on the Grain Farmers of Ontario website, as it documents the adventures of a city girl discovering the country, covering such topics as farm life, food, recipes, and agriculture in general.
Grain Farmers of Ontario is encouraging its urban neighbours to learn more about grain farming using the community page as a starting point.
Other features of the website, such as the Twitter feed and comment areas, encourage those interested to engage in conversation and provide feedback on the new content.
The GFO is the province’s newest and largest commodity organization, representing Ontario’s 28,000 corn, soybean and wheat farmers.
