Hello,

Just a quick reminder that the deadline to pre-register for the 2008  
Farmland Preservation Forum 'Land for the Next Generation of Ontario  
Farmers' is this Thursday, April 10th.

Please visit www.ontariofarmlandtrust.ca for details or to register.

See below for invitation:

The Ontario Farmland Trust to invites you to participate in our  
upcoming forum, 'Land for the Next Generation of Ontario Farmers'.

The forum will take place at the University of Guelph, Ontario, on  
April 17th, 2008.  It will bring together a network of actors from the  
farm community, the nonprofit sector, and government to address the  
issue of access to land for new farmers in Ontario.  We intend to  
start our day with a discussion panel featuring three speakers whose  
innovative work has helped to extend access to land for new farmers in  
the US and Canada.  We will devote the rest of the day to building a  
strategic means of working collaboratively to address this critical  
issue.  The recommendations that result from this process will be  
presented to policy makers at a separate event on the morning of April  
18th.

I hope that you will be available to join us for this timely forum!    
Please feel free to share the attached invitation with members of your  
network.  For more information and to register, please visit our  
website: www.farmland.uoguelph.ca.

With best regards,

Melissa
