Hallahan Dairy Farm to host Breakfast on the Farm on June 17
Last updated: June 12, 2023
Summary
On June 17, 2023, Breakfast on the Farm will be hosted by Farm & Food Care Ontario (FFCO) and local farmers, one of which is at Hallahan Dairy Farm in Huron County.
This family-friendly event provides a unique opportunity for farmers and non‐farming Ontarians to have a conversation about food and farming. It gives visitors a chance to visit real, working farms, provides a showcase for agriculture and allows non-farmers to have their questions answered by real farmers.
After being treated to an all-Ontario breakfast, visitors can tour a beef and dairy farm as part of a special farm crawl edition. There will also be more than 100 Ontario farmers on hand to answer guests’ questions about food and farming. Interactive stops around the farm will include displays, activities and exhibits showcasing other types of Ontario farms.
Since 2013, farm families across Ontario have opened their farms to host Breakfast on the Farm events. These popular experiences have attracted thousands of urban and suburban visitors to local farms across the province. For the past two years, FFCO hosted drivethrough and walk-through events with local fairs as host locations to meet COVID-19 safety guidelines. For 2023’s events, FFCO is returning to the on-farm format.
Breakfast from the Farm is made possible with host farms Grazing Meadows Wagyu and Hallahan Dairy and the support of local agri-businesses and organizations.
Stop one: Breakfast and tour at Grazing Meadows Wagyu Farm.
Stop two: Tour of Hallahan Dairy Farm and ice cream stop: The seventh-generation dairy farm is located just outside Blyth and home to a herd of 60 milking cows. Guests will tour the modern barns and milking facility, which features two milking robots.
