Farmers’ Roundup is an open, boots-on-the-ground conversation about the real challenges facing farmers in the Shuswap—and a chance to explore how a local co-op could support you in practical, meaningful ways.
Join us Saturday, February 21, 2026, from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm to connect with other farmers, share what’s working (and what isn’t), and help shape what comes next. Lunch is included. Registration is required so we can order you lunch!
