The Canadian Centre for Food Integrity (CCFI) has announced February 15, 2023, as the date for the next Canada’s Agriculture Day.

Canada’s Agriculture Day is a day to recognize the work of all those who help produce the food that Canadians and people around the world eat.

“This is an ideal opportunity for everyone to learn more about where their food comes from while getting to know the people who produce it. I encourage all Canadians to join the agri-food community online to have these important conversations about food and agriculture,” said John Jamieson, CCFI president and CEO.

Canada’s Agriculture Day, led by Agriculture More Than Ever, was launched in 2017. Every year, Canadians from coast-to-coast show their love through social media using the official hashtag #CdnAgDay. 

There are various ways to honour Canadian agriculture and food on February 15, 2023:

-  Post a photo, take a video, or write a blog post. On social media, show us how you're celebrating by using #CdnAgDay.

-  Attend a virtual farm tour.

-  Share a photo of a meal made with 100% Canadian ingredients.

-  Ask questions about agriculture and listen to farmers tell their story.
