County of Grande Prairie opens nominations for 2027 Farm Family of the Year
Residents have until Dec. 1 to nominate a farming family for the annual honour, which celebrates agricultural and community contributions.
The County of Grande Prairie is accepting nominations for its 2027 Farm Family of the Year Award, which recognizes a farming family that uses sustainable practices, adapts to challenges, and contributes to rural community life.
Reeve Amanda McDonald said the award is a chance to thank farm families who balance unpredictable weather, short growing seasons and volatile markets while still volunteering in their communities, such as coaching hockey or organizing fall suppers.
The winning family will be featured online and honoured during the Peace Country Classic Agri-Show in March. Nominations close Dec. 1.
