Time for Farm Registration Renewals...

Farm Registration renewals will soon be mailed to farmers across the province.  If you have previously registered your farm in the 2008/09 year, you should receive a form from Service Nova Scotia with your personal information already filled in.  We ask that you update any information and complete the remaining sections. Check the box in Section 5 to ensure your NSFA membership and fill in your affiliated County. There is no additional charge for your NSFA membership and a portion of your fee will be returned to your local County Federation to support their work. Effective April 1st, 2009 there will be changes to the membership categories and an increase in the farm registration fees.
