Talk Ask Listen, developed by The Do More Ag Foundation, is an interactive workshop. It is designed to foster and support people across agricultural communities, from producers right through industry and community, to increase mental health knowledge, become comfortable with mental health conversations, and learn how to take action. Talk Ask Listen helps participants to build skillsets and knowledge; it is not therapy. These workshops help communities, business and industry, and farms cultivate a culture of well-being. Talk Ask Listen has been delivered to over 2,500 participants since the program’s inception.
CAFLA invites you to a hands-on, informative event featuring expert presentations, real-world insights from local producers, and an on-farm visit to Tin Forest Farm to see Nature’s Netwrap in action.

Plot2Farm aims to bring agronomic management research to the farm-gate.
Join Alberta AgriSystems Living Lab and Lara de Moissac from Alberta Grains as we learn more about the projects and results from this on farm program. The Plot2Farm program was initially adapted from small plot research, Alberta Grains developed farm-ready research protocols that farmers can implement on-farm with the help of an agronomist. Since the program’s inception in 2020, Alberta Grains has expanded the list of protocols to include seeding rate, plant growth regulator, and a few custom trials per year.

Wrap up the year prepared — get your Environmental Farm Plan (EFP) completed or renewed ahead of year-end programs like AgriInvest, RALP, and new 2026 funding opportunities that may require it. EFPs are valid for 10 years, so if yours was completed some time ago, it may be due for renewal.
The EFP is a voluntary, educational, and confidential tool that helps you identify environmental risks and opportunities on your farm. Your information stays strictly between you and your technician.
Bring your laptop and join this free, hands-on workshop for one-on-one guidance to create or update your plan.

Over the past two decades, AgriStability has undergone significant changes, from Reference Margin Limiting to updated coverage levels and new eligibility conditions. Many producers left the program years ago due to previous changes that no longer apply, and some continue to stay away from the program because of certain misconceptions, but today’s AgriStability is more accessible and beneficial than it has been for many years for most farm operations.
This session will cut through the myths and explain in plain language how AgriStability works, what it covers, and how to assess whether it fits your farm’s risk-management strategy.
MD of Pincher Creek ASB & Foothills Forage & Grazing Assocation are pleased to offer an Environmental Farm Plan Workshop to area producers.

Carbon footprint? No problem! New research from University of British Columbia found that Canadian crops ALWAYS had the lowest emission footprints in the world because our soils are sequestering carbon. In extreme cases, western Canadian crops could be shipped to western European markets an additional 17 times before their carbon footprint would break even with crops grown in Europe! Want to learn more about this research?
Join Alberta AgriSystems Living Lab and Dr. Nicole Bamber in this webinar to learn more about how Canadian soils sequester carbon and Canadian crops have the lowest carbon footprint.
