Launching "Checking out Farm Bugs" Campaign!

Farms at Work is excited to announce our first crowdfund campaign!  We are using this opportunity to help support farmers in on-farm research projects. 

Our "Checking out Farm Bugs" campaign aims to raise $3000 to purchase a microscope and insect pins so that we can help farmers identify what insects (both pests and beneficials) are showing up on their farms.  This research will contribute to the development of alternative pest management strategies that can reduce pesticide use and increase yields.  Let's make this happen!

If you would prefer to donate by cheque or cash rather than online please mail donations to 317 Reid St. Peterborough, Ontario K9J 3R2.
