Conversations are happening across Canada this June.
This month, we’ll be sharing stories, reflections, and conversations connected to Pride Month, National Indigenous History Month, Men’s Mental Health Month, and community across rural spaces.
Agriculture is built on people looking out for one another.

A farmer reached a breaking point with burnout—and decided to respond in a way that would reach others like her.
She began mailing $100 gift cards to farmers across the continent with one simple message: take care of yourself.
That farmer is Clara Coleman, founder of Real Farmer Care. In Episode 8 of Hay Are We Okay?, she joins host Merle Massie to talk about why farmers resist self-care—and what shifts when they finally receive it.

This is a stressful time of year💚
As a farmer, so much of what contributes to successful planting season is out of your control. Here is your reminder to take care of yourself.

@SnobelenGrain Thank you for sharing this reminder 💚 Planting season can bring a lot of pressure and uncertainty, and taking care of mental health is just as important as taking care of the crop.
Sometimes the most important conversations are also the hardest ones to start.
Many people want to support someone who may be struggling — they just don’t always know what to say, what signs to look for, or how to help without making things worse.
In partnership with Abridge Consulting, our upcoming workshop, Start the Conversation: Suicide Awareness in Our Community, is designed to help build confidence in having those conversations within agricultural and rural communities.
Together, we’ll explore practical ways to recognize distress, respond with care, and strengthen support across our communities.

Every seeding season, farmers across Canada show up with everything they have—long days, early mornings, and the dedication that keeps this country fed.
This spring, we encourage every farmer and farm family to look out for yourself and each other.
For farm safety resources and support during seeding season, @planfarmsafety and @USaskCCRAH are two trusted platforms worth bookmarking.

Why do farmers feel so resistant to self-care?
Clara Coleman has thought a lot about this. In Episode 8 of Hay Are We Okay?, she shares a perspective that reframes the conversation: if we’re responsible for caring for the land, the animals, and our communities, we also need to receive care in return.

Good news: to reach more communities, the 2026 Community Fund for Mental Health deadline has been extended to May 20, and the application has been updated to make it even easier to apply.
After just one Talk Ask Listen workshop, confidence in talking about mental health nearly doubled (see our 2025 Impact Report). That’s real impact for agricultural communities.
