Mission Statement
Our purpose is to support, protect and promote the interests of small farm producers and to raise awareness of local food issues to consumers
Objectives
The purpose of this organization is to promote, protect and provide a voice for small
scale farm producers and for consumers who wish to support small scale family farms.
Currently
some political realities exist which are becoming increasingly damaging to small
scale farmers, and which favour large, intensive and often non-sustainable agricultural
operations.
Ontario Small Farm Producers Association
This organization has been created to address this trend. It will foster communication among farmers and consumers, not limited to its membership, provide a forum for discussion, provide education and information to the public about farm issues and work to address inequities in the local, provincial and federal political systems and regulatory agencies relevant to small scale farm operations.
Of central importance is an agricultural policy which supports and creates environmentally sustainable local food systems, and thereby strengthens local economies and communities, This truly promotes local food security, both now and for the future.
Consumers should have the right to choose what food products they can legally buy and where and from whom.
