Please join us in welcoming Crystal Fullerton to the AgKnow Team! As our new Program Coordinator, she brings a wealth of knowledge from her previous work with the PEI Federation of Agriculture where she was involved in the Farmer Assistance Program (FAP), a dedicated mental health resource for island farmers. Having seen the positive impacts of long-term, hands-off government and industry supported mental health programming, she is keen to work with AgKnow to have the same successes in Alberta.

When we think of farmers, most people picture men on a tractor plowing fields or raising cattle. While the majority of farmers in Canada are still white men, the number of women entering the industry is steadily growing.
