The National Farmers Union is now accepting applications to cohort 2 of THE EXCHANGE: Cultivating Diversity in Agriculture.

THE EXCHANGE is a professional development program for equity-deserving farmers in Canada, designed to help farmers access training, mentorship, networking and funding.

Equity-deserving farmers include, but are not limited to, Indigenous farmers; Black and other racialized farmers; women farmers; youth farmers; 2SLGBTQI+ farmers, farmers with disabilities; and farmers in Official Language Minority Communities; and all farmworkers in these same groups.
