Did you know Manitoba is Canada’s third largest hemp producer?
Renowned for its strong natural fibres, hemp was originally used to make rope, cloth, sails, paper, and more. Today, hemp is an important -- and highly sustainable -- source of food and fibre.
The Foundations of Manitoba Agriculture is a series of interactive courses and information sheets that invite you and your students to explore the different crops grown and animals raised in Manitoba.
Making the connection between food and where it comes from can lead to healthier eating choices and a better appreciation for agriculture and it's role in feeding the world.
