88 The Rural Voice
Every year the Huron County
Federation of Agriculture (HCFA)
produces an annual paper that is
circulated throughout rural addresses
in Huron County.
This paper includes articles from
the HCFA, commodity groups and
local agricultural interest stories to
review the important issues and
activities occurring in Huron County
agriculture.
Currently this publication is called
“The Huron County Survey”. We are
looking to update the name of the
paper.
Please submit your suggestions to
the HCFA office by email to:
ofahuron@tcc.on.ca or HCFA, 42
First Ave, Clinton ON N0M 1L0.
There will be one winning entry
selected. The winner will receive a
$20 local food voucher and a pair of
tickets to our annual meeting.
Entries must be received by
August 26. All entries become
property of the HCFA. ◊
