FarmLink in the Community facebook-logo Twitter-icon

This year, the principles of FarmLink allocated $20,000 to be distributed throughout Western communities, within two specific areas -- Education and FoodGrain Projects. 

 

Scholarships in the amounts of $500 and $1000 were given to graduating students with an average of 80% or above, who intended to pursue higher education within an agricultural or science related field.

 

Below are the recipients of those scholarships and a few pictures from the fields:

The FarmLink $1000 will be very welcome and much appreciated. It will be used to help with some expenses on the Farm Project. Money raised will be used for General Maintenance. Most things cost lots in an arena because of the size. A plumber has been there this summer doing work on the Hot Water Boiler. See updates and pictures on this project here >>
