The OPC will be back for 2024 on June 19th and 20th at the Rotary Complex and Agriplex in Stratford, Ontario. This year the volunteer team is working hard to bring back many familiar events including the International Workers forum, Taste the Best, Hog Jog and the Perth County Pork Producer’s BBQ lunch that we at Grand Valley Fortifiers are proud sponsors of once again. For the first time in five years, the OPC Committee is planning to hold the Bacon Maker Classic swine show on Thursday June 20 from 11 am – 3 pm. If you know a young farmer interested in showing a hog, encourage them to reach out and sign up. Biosecurity measures will be in place and volunteers will be on hand to manage traffic flows.
Our Grand Valley Fortifiers Swine Specialist and Farmers Depot HyCare specialists will be on site to meet with you and share new opportunities and ideas to help you achieve the best possible production of pork at the lowest possible cost of production using our nutrition products and services. Be sure to stop our booths in the Agriplex building and learn more about new biosecurity products from Farmers Depot, including the HyBag® – a revolutionary new product from MS Shippers designed to make cleaning easier, more economical and more effective. Note the show hours are now 9 am – 5 pm on Wednesday and 9 am – 4 pm on Thursday. We look forward to visiting with you there!
