16/17 Chamber Luncheon- Champions of Agriculture

The Champions of Agriculture Luncheon provides positive information about modern agriculture to the business community.

Hear about GORP Clean Energy Bars as we showcase this Manitoba success story using value-added agriculture processing. Gain insight on Colleen Dyck's entrepreneurial passion, successes, lessons learned, and vision for the future. Learn about Extra Mile Ingredient Sourcing and the local ingredients including Manitoba-grown oats, sunflower seeds, hemp, flax and the Dycks' own honey, which comes directly from beehives that pollinate the canola fields behind their house.

"All natural energy bars and energy bar mixes made with 60% Manitoba grown ingredients! Processed and packaged in Manitoba. A clean eating option for people who are on the go." from buymanitobafoods.ca

The meal will feature sweet potatoes grown on ACC’s North Hill Campus as part of a multi-year applied research project lead by instructors and students in the college’s Horticultural Production and Sustainable Food Systems programs.
