To further support our rural areas and local farm communities, OFA developed the Revive Fund. This program offers our 51 county and regional federations the opportunity to apply for additional funding to plan, develop and launch new projects and initiatives in their local communities. The Revive Fund aims to help our farming and rural communities enhance the profile of the agriculture industry in Ontario.
The intention is to support our grassroots members and agricultural communities by giving back in a way that can make a positive impact through the implementation of tangible activities. These initiatives focus on health and wellness, agriculture education, local food promotion, environmental stewardship, leadership development and farm safety.
We are proud of our local Federations, who have stepped up with initiatives to create something better for their communities.
