Ontario Grain Farmer August 2022

www.GoodinEveryGrain.ca Good in Every Grain 30 ONTARIO GRAINS ARE ARRIVING IN STYLE Good in Every Grain will now be arriving at events across Ontario in style in a brand new “Grains on the Go” trailer. The previous trailer, “Growing Connections,” was good for large events but could only attend a limited number of events per year due to its size and aging infrastructure. After nearly 18 months of planning, we are excited to have a new trailer! The new trailer is easier to tow, which provides more opportunities to engage with a broader audience. It contains updated content with interactive and engaging pieces throughout the trailer and is fully accessible. The new trailer provides an opportunity to reach a broader audience by attending new events. This year, you can expect to see the new trailer at the Canada Day on Parliament Hill celebrations, the Honda Indy, the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, the International Plowing Match, and the Canadian National Exhibition. Our Good in Every Classroom education program will also highlight the “Grains on the Go” trailer. This new trailer is a key component of Good in Every Grain’s mission to present Ontario grain farming to Ontario consumers in an interactive way to help them understand why Ontario grains and grain farming are vital to Ontario. The trailer features seven interactive sections: virtual reality, grains in our lives, health and nutrition, the environment (people, plants, prosperity), trivia, and meeting the farmers and growing grains. The entire exhibit is modern, eye-catching and interactive. These seven sections work together to create an interactive, engaging, and creative experience to help answer their grain-related questions about gluten, health, environment, what happens on a farm, and more. Grain Farmers of Ontario’s Grain Discovery Zone trailer continues to play an important role in our Good in Every Grain program, visiting fairs and events across the province this summer and fall.
