Why is it important to know where your food comes from?

Evan Fraser, director of the @ArrellFoodInst at the University of Guelph, shares how agriculture shapes the way we live, work and eat.

This Canadian Agriculture Literacy Month (CALM), we’re connecting classrooms across Canada to the people and stories behind our food.

Thank you to @Cargill and @AAFC_Canada for supporting CALM!

Pourquoi est-il important de connaître la provenance de nos aliments?

Evan Fraser, directeur de l’Arrell Food Institute à l’Université de Guelph, explique comment l’agriculture façonne notre façon de vivre, de travailler et de manger.

En ce Mois de la littératie agricole canadienne (CALM), nous mettons les classes de tout le Canada en contact avec les personnes et les histoires qui se cachent derrière nos aliments.

Merci à Cargill et à @AAC_Canada pour son soutien au CALM!
