Grain Farmers of Ontario new community page and blog are live!

GUELPH, ON (June 22, 2011) – Grain Farmers of Ontario’s website has become an industry leader in providing up to the minute news, crop updates, market information, the latest agricultural research and more.

Now, the Grain Farmers of Ontario website has launched a community page at www.gfo.ca/community to create an area of interest to the general public looking for general farm news, and links to products made from corn, soy and wheat. Visitors will also find fun trivia and general grain information, book reviews and recipe sharing.

The new community page will also feature a new blog titled “Growing Grain”.  The focus of the blog will be something a little different on the Grain Farmers of Ontario website, as it documents the adventures of a city girl discovering the country and covering such topics as farm life, food, recipes and agriculture in general.

Grain Farmers of Ontario is encouraging our urban neighbours to learn more about grain farming using the community page as a starting point.  Other features of the website such as the Twitter feed and comment areas encourage those interested to engage in conversation and provide feedback on the new content.
