Tim Rorabeck of Rorafresh Farm was presented with a $1,000 from CSG member Don Hudson.
Hans Ning of Paper Kite Farm was presented $500 from CSG members Don Hudson and Don Chisholm.
This is the CSG’s fifth year awarding local farmers who best demonstrate the principles of ecological farming, with proceeds from the annual spring rainbarrel sales.

David Bazett-Jones, Ontario Land Trust participant, and Tim Rorabeck, of Rorafresh Farm, received their $500 from CSG member Don Hudson.
