Fanshawe College continues to consult stakeholders in the farm and agrifood sector in Norfolk County about establishing a Farm Business program at the James N. Allan campus in Simcoe. A round table held recently garnered positive responses from farm owners and managers, winery owners, local government officials and others.
“The message we have received from the community has been quite consistent: there is a need for a program delivered locally that provides training for students who could take on middle management roles on large and growing farm operations,” said Andrew Gunn, Regional Advancement Coordinator for Fanshawe College.
