APAS Youth Leadership and Mentorship Program

Saskatchewan needs a new generation of farm leaders. APAS and the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture are hosting the APAS Youth Leadership and Mentorship Program, beginning Fall 2017 to Summer 2018. The goal of the program is to help young producers gain valuable experience, take advantage of networking opportunities and develop the skills necessary to become a future industry leader.

APAS is pleased to announce a partnership with FarmLead. For every farmer who registers their free FarmLead account using the referral code “APAS,” FarmLead will make a $25.00 charitable donation payable to APAS in support of the Youth Leadership and Mentorship Program. More information here.
