The Carrot Cache is once again offering a $1,000 prize for innovative, low cost solutions to planting, harvesting, and managing food grown ecologically in Ontario. This is a great opportunity for farmers to share proven, creative ways already in use on-farm to build financial and environmental sustainability.

Submissions will be shared with attendees at the 11th Annual EFAO Conference: Interconnected (December 3rd to 5th at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in Kingston) and attendees will have the chance to vote for their favourite on-farm innovations. The winner will be announced at the Conference. Submissions must be received by 9:00AM on Monday November 18.

The Carrot Cache is a small foundation that funds co-operatives, local organic food initiatives and community food strategies in Ontario. Submissions to the Carrot Cache $1000 Innovation Prize may be shared on www.carrotcache.com, the Carrot Cache Facebook page and in the EFAO Print Publication and blog.
