Thank a Retailer Community Contest

Posted by Stephanie Rogers on January 17, 2017 in News

ADAMA is giving four outstanding ag retailers a grand prize of $15,000 each to spend on worthy causes in their community.

Vote for our alumni at Truro Agromart!Ìý You can vote once per day per email address.

The future of our communities depend on our youth and the future of agriculture in Nova Scotia depends on that youth as well.

Truro Agromart wants to help the youth of Truro as well as Nova Scotia. The chosen project that will benefit is the 4-h livestock barn at the Truro Exhibition.

These grounds are not only used for the county shows but also more often than not for the annual provincial 4-h show. This provincial show is the largest of its kind in Canada. It is open to all the 2400 members in the 100 4-h clubs in Nova Scotia. Youth earn the right to complete in this event annually. It is a wonderful opportunity for competition as well as forming long lasting friendships for the youth of Nova Scotia.

The 4-h livestock barn is in need of help.The roof and all doors need to be replaced. As well the metal on the walls needs repaired. Rabbit cage shelves need to be modified and the feed room needs repaired as well. With six 4-h Alumni on staff their choice is easy to make!
