The Provincial Exhibition of Manitoba and BMO were pleased to recognize six Manitoba families at this year’s BMO Manitoba Farm Family Awards on Thursday (Mar. 30) during the 2023 Royal Manitoba Winter Fair.
The Provincial Exhibition and BMO aim to create awareness about the importance of farming and agriculture and work together to support the hard work and dedication each of these families put into keeping their family operations running.
“For over 200 years, BMO has been supporting Canada’s agricultural community,” says says Lynda Taylor, Senior Vice President and National Head, Agriculture and Agribusiness, BMO Commercial Bank, Canada. “Events like this are important as they highlight and honour the hard-working across the province for their impressive contributions.”
“Farm families aren’t just important to Manitoba’s rural economy, they’re a fundamental part of our proud agricultural heritage,” says Provincial Exhibition President Kathy Cleaver. “On behalf of the Provincial Ex and the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair, I would like to congratulate the six winners of this prestigious award this year.”
