The Rural Voice, 2006-10, Page 35farmer should) will learn something
worthwhile. As one participant said
"I guess I knew most of this before
but I just hadn't thought about it until
I saw it in print". So you can teach an
old farmer new tricks.
There is also a workshop for
non -farmers in rural areas. The
topics include: maintaining
wells, septic systems, and trash
management. It is called A
Stewardship Guide for the Lake
Huron Coastline and is aimed at
cottagers and urbanites co -existing
with farmers in rural Ontario.
Now I have to complete my
Environmental Farm Plan and then
apply for grants to cap our
abandoned well and develop a buffer
of trees to protect the school from run
off. The new eavestroughs work fine.
The water now drains to the west and
in the ram last night no water flowed
through the barnyard.
Environmental Farm Plan — how
many times have we quickly scanned
a title like this in a newspaper or
magazine and thought "that doesn't
affect me"? I now know that it
greatly affects all of us.0
