The Ecological Farmers have been encouraging farmer to farmer information exchanges for nearly 30 years. Kitchen Table Meetings are usually focused around a topic and people come to learn and share information, ideas and questions. On March 15 Meeting Place Organic Farm, near Lucknow, will be hosting a discussion on small tools on the farm including chain saw use and safety. Other tools will include jacks, come-alongs and useful hand tools. Old 99 Farm, near Dundas, will hold a discussion about post-harvest produce presentation and pricing on March 19. It will explore the Do’s and Don’ts of presenting fruits and vegetables for sale at farm gate and farmers markets. There will be an opportunity to practise with real produced (supplied by Plan B) to create and critique. Preserving/canning your fruits and vegetables will be the topic of a meeting planned for May 4 at Whole Village Farm, near Caledon. This will be a hands on opportunity to learn the use of the tools and canning principles. There will be three participatory activities using recipes that demonstrate different types of preserving methods. The West Committee is also working on finalizing plans for summer farm tours. In addition to looking at farms in southwestern Ontario consideration is being given to organizing a bus tour to Joel Salatin’s Polyface Farm. More information on the Kitchen meetings and upcoming tours can be obtained by contacting the EFAO office in Guelph at 519-822- 8606.
