The Peterborough Organic Farmers Network, formed in September 2018, is the local chapter of the Canadian Organic Growers. This network provides opportunities for local farmers to connect and determine what areas of study and research are of interest to them. We are growing our network by reaching out to the community through activities such as farm tours and the bus trip to the Guelph Organic Conference & Tradeshow.
