The Great Ontario Clean Farms Challenge
August 5, 2015 - Attention Ontario farmers! We want to hear from you.
The challenge – should you choose to accept it – is to tell us how you look after the environment on your farm.
From recycling ag packaging, oils, lubes, tires, and batteries to returning obsolete pesticides and equine/livestock medication for safe disposal – we want to hear your story… and the more innovative, the better!
Do you know a great farmer? Tell us!
Are you one of the hundreds of ag-partners who help support Ontario farmers? This is your chance to share who and what you know while helping CleanFARMS profile the good work that Ontario farmers are doing to protect the environment.
How to enter - take 5!
It couldn’t be any easier. Whether you are nominating someone for this award, or nominating yourself, all you need is 5 to 10 minutes to complete our online entry form. The CleanFARMS team will take it from there.
Once all of the nominations are in, our judging panel will develop a shortlist and nominees will be interviewed before the winners are selected. Rules and regulations can be found here. Frequently asked questions are also available.
Nominate yourself or an Ontario farmer who cares for the environment today.
Prizes
In addition to helping us spread the word on how Ontario farmers are making a difference to the environment, three cash prizes are up for grabs for the winning farmers:
- 1st - $5,000
- 2nd - $3,000
- 3rd - $1,000
