THE FACES BEHIND #ABSUGAR22
Featured Growers
200 farm families in Southern Alberta have the privilege of providing a local, sustainable, and fully domestic source of sugar to Canadian families. These growers include fourth-generation farmers, immigrants who found their foothold in Canada, women committed to the agricultural industries, and so many more impressive and dedicated individuals. These are their stories.
