AgriTouristCenter is here to provide a place that serves
as a
destination for the general public, tourists, school trips, farm
workshops and other educational venues, as well as special events and
community service.
Our primary focus is an Agri-Tourist Centre, an
agri-tourist
destination which is a farmers market that includes local grown foods,
a bakery, an eatery, landscaping outlet plus antiques, crafts and flea
market vendors and a multi-purpose room on the main floor of our
largest building. The existing large cathedral-like
lofts
will be available for educational and community service
spaces.
We will contribute the leadership in the Agri-science by working
closely with University of Guelph, Brock
University and Niagara College.
The
trend today is all about going green, eat local, and be self
sufficient. We have taken this to heart and are
looking at
being an education centre for students interested in eco-studies,
endangered species and specialty crops. There are several
endangered species of plants which with the help of some non-profit
organizations a joint venture to re-establish them is being considered
part of our horticulture mandate as well as an emphasis on out door
living and educating public on easy to create eco-friendly natural
spaces.
As a compliment, we will have a culinary teaching facility, media and
production facility.
