[BCFSN] Support Young Agrarians today on Giving Tuesday!

[Vancouver Island Young Agrarians]

Today is Giving Tuesday Canada <http://givingtuesday.ca/>, a national day
dedicated to philanthropic and charitable giving. We would love your help
to grow and support the next generation of new and young ecological farmers
in BC! Please help us raise funds for 2017 programs. With people 35 and
younger making up less than 5% of B.C.’s farmers, new farmers need your
support more than ever! We offer a robust online engagement strategy
<http://youngagrarians.org/> including tools and resources, educational and
networking events <http://youngagrarians.org/events/>,business mentorships
<http://youngagrarians.org/tools/business/> and land access programming
<http://youngagrarians.org/tools/land/>.

This is our very first online campaign to engage new and potential
donors. Please
consider making a contribution <http://youngagrarians.org/about/donate/>,
and helping to spread the word to your networks. If you are unable to make
a donation at this time, we would love your help sharing our Facebook post
below. We greatly appreciate your support!
