Farm Safety: Our Farmers’ Stories

Your Story:

We want to hear from you! Tell us about a time on the farm where something happened that made an impact on how you worked on the farm from that day forward.

What was your take away from the event? What resonated with you? What safety measures were implemented?  What would you recommend to other farmers?

 

Background:

We want to share your experiences with others, so they can avoid the “Ah Ha” moment and understand the importance of risk management and having a good safety culture on the farm.

Submission:

In as much detail as you like, tell us your story. Let us know why you want to share your story. You can send us a letter via mail, fax, e-mail, drop off it off at the NSFA office or tell the Farm Safety Advisor in person.
