Our 129th Annual General Meeting will be taking place this year from Tuesday, November 26 to Wednesday, November 27 at the Best Western Glengarry, Truro.

We have adjusted the dates of this year’s Annual Meeting in order to allow our members and stakeholders the opportunity to attend the Atlantic Farm Mechanization Show, also happening in the last week of November. Mark your calendars!
