"This is a fabulous idea," says Grace Oesch, president, Ontario Farm Women's Network. "It really is a fitting reminder of the contribution farm women have made, and continue to make, to Ontario farms and to the rural community." Well-known Woodstock stone mason, John Jonker, will construct the cairn. "It's an honour to be involved with a project that has province -wide significance," says the craftsman with more than 40 years experience cutting and placing stones. onker estimates that he will require about 150 stones to complete the five -foot -high cairn. "We need lots of pinks, blacks and brightly -colored field stones," he says. Farm women are requested to bring a six -to -eight -inch stone — the size of a tomato to a cantaloupe. Each farm woman bringing a stone to the Farm Women's Tent will receive a free luncheon ticket, compliments of the Farm Credit Corporation (FCC). As part of the tribute to farm women, Rosemary Davis, new Chair of FCC's Board of Directors and Owner/Operator of Tri -County Agromart Ltd. in Trenton, Ontario, will be a featured speaker at the Farm Women's Tent on the afternoon of Tuesday, September 12, 2000. Mrs. Davis will be highlighting women entrepreneurs and their contribution to the agricultural industry. In addition to the daily activity at the cairn, there will be a tent devoted to entrepreneurial projects developed by farm women. The tent will include speakers and a wide -range of exhibits, from marketing herbs to producing organic dairy products. All projects have become part of the farm business and important generators of farm income. There will be special presentations of the Show's Family Program, presented by the Ontario Farm Environmental Coalition's Environ- mental Farm Plan. Mark Cullen, Canada's best- known gardener, will be back again this year to offer tips and answer questions on "weeds, seeds and healthy gardens."
