The Ecological Farmers Association of Ontario

The Ecological Farmers Association of Ontario was established in 1979 with the purpose of:

* Helping members develop ecological farming methods which maintain and enhance the health of the soil, the crops, the livestock and the community.

* Providing opportunities for members to observe practical applications of ecological farming methods. These include soil tillage, green manures, cover crops, crop rotation, composting, soil erosion control, conservation practices, windbreaks, livestock management and marketing.

* Bringing together those people who are concerned about ecological agriculture so that they can share experiences.

* Creating links between farmers and consumers to gain their understanding, and to create markets for ecological farm products.
