Enhancing Financial Education for Farmers
The Ontario Federation of Agriculture (OFA) is launching the 2024 Financial Literacy and Farm Succession Planning Roadshow, in collaboration with Farm Life Financial. This educational series is designed to equip farmers with crucial financial strategies and tools for effective succession planning, ensuring farms remain within the family. Scheduled across various Ontario locations, the roadshow features experts Darrell Wade and Andrew Leach, who will provide valuable insights into family harmony, tax benefits, and generational goal alignment through seminars that include interactive sessions and a complimentary breakfast.
Roadshow Details and Learning Opportunities
Set against the backdrop of community halls and local venues, each session promises a blend of practical learning and networking opportunities. These workshops are particularly tailored for multi-generational farm families who are navigating the complexities of farm value taxation and seeking to maintain harmony during the transition process. Whether participants are new to the concept of incorporation or already incorporated, these sessions are structured to address all levels of financial literacy and planning needs.
Accessible Options and Registration Information
Understanding the challenges of winter travel, the OFA offers a virtual workshop option for those unable to attend in person, ensuring no one misses out on these critical financial planning resources. The roadshow will make stops in Vankleek Hill, Winchester, Stouffville, Simcoe, Stratford, Chatham, London, and a virtual session, covering a wide range of locations to maximize accessibility. Interested attendees are encouraged to register online to secure a spot at their preferred session, where they can engage directly with financial experts and gain tailored advice for their farming operations.
