Canadians are invited to share their love for Canadian food on February 15 by using the official hashtag #CdnAgDay on social media. Some creative ways to join the online celebrations include preparing a meal made from Canadian ingredients, sharing photos and videos of Canadian agriculture and local food, and thanking our farmers for their hard work and nutritious food they provide to Canadians and people around the world.
"Canadian agriculture is a vital and resilient industry that continues to provide safe, high-quality food for Canadians and people around the world,” says John Jamieson, president and CEO of the Canadian Centre for Food Integrity. “We are proud of the hardworking farmers and industry professionals who are committed to the responsible and sustainable production of food."
