About this listen
24 hours a Day. 7 Days a Week. 365 Days a Year. The Farmer Wellness Initiative provides access to free counselling services and tailored mental health support for Ontario farmers and their families. Bruce Butter, Zone 12 Director OFA & Chair of the Farmer Wellness Initiative Advisory Committee, joins us to discuss how the Farmer Wellness Initiative helps connect farmers with a support network rooted in rural Ontario. Support professionals are trained and have backgrounds in the ag industry to help support the unique needs of the farming community.
