Earlier this year we partnered with 4-H Alberta to host a Journey 2050 contest! Our friends at Agriculture for Life hosted virtual Journey 2050 workshops open to members across the province. After participating, members told us what they learned and entered to win swag or a tour at Nutrien’s reclamation forest at their site in Fort Saskatchewan. This past weekend, Nutrien hosted the tour winners and their families for lunch, a careers discussion, site tour and the reclamation forest tour! A big thank you to 4-H Alberta for partnering with us on this contest experience, to Ag for Life for hosting the virtual Journey 2050 workshops, and to Nutrien for sponsoring and making this a memorable experience for contest winners!
