Huron County is the most agriculturally productive County in Ontario, with 2,564 farms controlling total capital assets of over $12.2 billion. Yet only 14% of farm families have a written succession plan. That leaves over $10.3 billion dollars of capital unprotected by written multi-generational agreements. With the median age of farm operators being 57 years of age, this leaves Huron’s top sector in a vulnerable position.
We are excited to welcome Elaine Froese, Canada’s Farm Whisperer, to Huron County for her famous one-day workshop: Finding Fairness in Farm Transition on November 16, 2023.
