Canada’s Agriculture Day was formally announced on June 1, 2016 with the inaugural celebration set for February 16, 2017. Since 2017, AgScape has been pleased to celebrate this important day honouring Canadian farmers and food producers through recognition and various initiatives.

🧑‍🌾 In 2020, we partnered with Farm & Food Care Ontario for “A Day in the Life of Our Farming & Food Heroes” where we heard from a sheep farmer (Circle R Lamb), Nature Fresh Farms tomato growers, a pig farmer (Ontario Pork), Hensall Co-op grain farmers, and a beekeeper (MacQuarrie Family Bees).
🐓 In 2023, we launched “Meat & Poultry Processing in Ontario,” a Teacher’s Guide for grades 7-12 developed with Meat & Poultry Ontario.
🐄 In 2024, we hosted a Virtual Field Trip at Gay Lea Dairy Museum.
🌱 In 2025, we hosted a Virtual Field Trip at Just Vertical, a hydroponic farm.

This year, we are excited to launch our Growing into Tomorrow: Canada's Agriculture Day Challenge for grades 1-4 students to explore agriculture and food literacy by discovering where their food comes from with our new From Seed to Salad Teacher Resource.

In 2026, we are celebrating AgScape’s 35th year bringing agriculture and food education to Ontario classrooms in addition to 15 years of our Teacher Ambassador Program (TAP). TAP was launched in September 2011 at Canada's Outdoor Farm Show and has continued to grow with AgScape into today.

In the early years of TAP, we grew a team of 25 dedicated Teacher Ambassadors, shifted to focus our programming on grade 7-12 students, and introduced a careers component to our lessons. All of these milestones have carried us into the present day and helped shape TAP into what it is now.

Next Tuesday, January 27, AgScape will be attending the Brock University Experience Expo! 🚀

We are looking forward to connecting students with our agriculture and food career resources as they discover rewarding opportunities in the industry. See you there!

We are pleased to announce that 2026 marks AgScape’s 35th year empowering Ontario youth to understand their connection to agriculture and food. On April 15, 1991, AgScape (formerly known as Ontario Agri-Food Education Inc.) was incorporated under the Agricultural and Horticultural Organizations Act. Our initial mission to build awareness of our agriculture and food system has carried us into present day.

In our 35th year, we are celebrating where we began and where we are today through honouring our roots and growing into tomorrow. We look forward to sharing this journey with you in 2026!

🌱📣 We are excited to start the new year with a Teacher Ambassador (TA) Spotlight on Johanne Patry! Our TAs enrich Ontario classrooms with agriculture and food literacy through free, curriculum-linked workshops.

Johanne’s passion for agriculture took root while pursuing her diploma in agriculture at McGill University. During her time at McGill, she worked at the university farm as a guide for school and day camp groups touring the facility. In 1980, she started teaching secondary science and engineering, and later on, she became a teachers’ teacher and pedagogical counsellor at the elementary, secondary, college and university levels at once nationally and internationally. We are delighted to have Johanne on our team delivering in-person and virtual workshops in addition to sharing her expertise at our events across Ontario. Thank you so much Johanne for your inspiring work with AgScape!
