Welcome to The Ontario Fruit and Vegetable
Growers’ Association (OFVGA)

As one of Ontario’s oldest commodity organizations, the OFVGA has played a major role in the province’s – and, to a certain extent, the country’s – horticultural sector. For more than 149 years, the OFVGA has acted as the “voice” of Ontario’s fruit, vegetable, and greenhouse producers. It is THE organization recognized by the provincial and federal government as representing the best interests of the edible horticultural industry.

 

Working in conjunction with farm organizations around the province – and the rest of the country – the OFVGA has taken a proactive approach to ensuring that fruit and vegetable grower issues are at the forefront of the pertinent government ministries. This is not an easy task, since agricultural issues involving fruit and vegetables tend to transcend a number of government ministries, agencies, and associated bodies.

 

The OFVGA is the official representative for Ontario to national and international bodies, including the Canadian Horticultural Council, and will continue to work proactively with partners within the horticultural sector, the agricultural industry, and the governments to better the livelihood of its more than 7,500 members.

 

As you peruse this website seeking information on our organization, its history, mandate, membership, and the industry as a whole, please feel free to contact us if you can’t readily find what you’re looking for. We’re here to assist you in any way possible.
