Minister Piccini at Kaiser Lake Farms

July 18, 2023

Wonderful morning spent at Kaiser Lake Farms alongside Minister of Environment David Piccini. I extend my warmest thanks to Max, Jessica, Molly, Rob and Eric for their tour and warm hospitality.

Minister Piccini shared that the province is investing $6 million into 30 community projects, with the focus being on the clean-up and restoration of the Great Lakes. A sizeable $65,000 has been granted to our local farmers to collaborate on reducing excess nutrients from agricultural lands.

I truly appreciate the dedication of the Kaisers to their land, the environment, and our community. They’ve implemented best management practices on their farm that not only preserve the topsoil but also protect our waterways, proving Max’s statement right, that ‘Most of the best management practices that we employ are actually serving many fronts.’

Witnessing active contributions at a local level toward preserving our natural resources is truly inspiring. A big thank you to the Kaisers and Minister Piccini for their tireless efforts.
