AgScape Launches Campaign to Fill the Shoes of Tomorrow’s Agriculture Leaders

AgScape is excited to kick-off our province-wide campaign to "Fill the Shoes of Tomorrow’s Agriculture Leaders."
 
During the month of December, we aim to raise much-needed funds to support the development and delivery of hands-on programs that will help youth learn about the agriculture and food sector and encourage them to pursue exciting agriculture careers. 
 
"With Ontario’s agriculture industry on track to having more than 40,000 vacant jobs by 2025, this begs the question of who will fill the shoes of today’s farmers, food scientists, production managers and equipment mechanics. The answer depends on whether we are able to engage students about these careers that lie ahead,” said Glenna Banda, Executive Director, AgScape.
