This year’s Farm Transition Appreciation Day (FTADay) is set to take place on January 9, 2025.
FTADay was created to encourage and celebrate the progress Canada’s farmers are making to secure the future of farming in Canada. It is a groundswell movement to motivate farmers to start, restart and keep going with farm transition planning by sharing inspirational stories shared on social media, agricultural media and learning events.
The New Year is the perfect time to celebrate our successes and take action to keep farms healthy for generations to come.
This Year’s theme is ‘Legacy in Motion,’ celebrating the dynamic role of farmers in building a sustainable and thriving future for Canadian agriculture, rooted in tradition and driven by innovation.
