Myth: Non-GMO labels mean the product is healthier.
Fact: Non-GMO labels can be misleading. Many foods labeled “non-GMO” don’t have a GMO counterpart, like orange juice (there are no GM oranges)! GMOs are rigorously tested and proven safe.

🌎 Today is World Environment Day.
Protecting the environment often starts with the soil beneath our feet.
Across Ontario, farmers use practices like crop rotation, cover crops, and precision agriculture to help improve soil health, reduce erosion, and make the most of resources like water and nutrients.
These practices help farmers grow food today while caring for the land for future generations.

Today is the International Day for Biological Diversity
Sustainable pesticide use helps support biodiversity, enabling farmers to grow more on less land, with 34M acres left in a natural state.
In cities, they also help protect urban greenspaces that provide food & habitat for wildlife.

Hello, May!
Planting season is underway across Ontario, with farmers preparing fields and getting seeds into the ground as conditions allow.
Fruit trees are in bloom, pastures are turning green, and a new growing season is beginning to take shape.
It’s a busy and exciting time on the farm, and a fresh start to the months ahead.
