Each of the five EFP regions (Peace, Northwest, Northeast, Central and South) is represented by several workshop facilitators. Because of this, EFP workshops can be held in virtually any community in the province and still be delivered by someone who understands the unique needs of producers in the area.
"Facilitators have held workshops as far north as the Peace River country and as far south as the U.S. border and just about everywhere in between," says Therese Tompkins, AEFP program director. "If you live in an area where there isn't a lot of EFP activity, you may not see a lot of signs that workshops can be held in your community. But we will go there – all it takes is a phone call and we'll do our best to arrange a workshop close to you."
