This week is Farm and Food Awareness Week in Manitoba.
\Manitoba Agriculture Minister and Dauphin MLA Ron Kostyshyn hopes young people in particular will learn more this week about how the food we eat gets to our tables.
"Where the milk comes from, where the flour comes from, where the grain comes from. I think that is a kudos to groups like 4-H, and Ag in the Classroom. But you know, the best education in my opinion is for faamilies to go out and visuaally see what our producers do for the betterment of food."
There are various activities being held across the province this week to showcase to students how food is produced.
Kostyshyn also hopes Manitobans will take time this week to seek out and thank a farmer for all of the great work they do in helping put food on their tables.
