The National Farmers Union is Canadian farm families sharing common goals. Each family member - farmer, spouse and children, ages 14 to 21 - are full members of the Union and enjoy all rights and privileges within the Union. This structure recognizes that every family member contributes to the farm by working on it, or providing supporting income through off-farm employment.
Associate Members are a valued part of the National Farmers Union family as well. Associate Members are non-farmers that understand that food issues are everyone's issues and want to help farmers build a sustainable and nutritious food system in Canada.
Member families of the Union believe that through an organization that represents all commodities produced in Canada, it is possible to promote the family farm as the most appropriate and efficient means of agricultural production. Our goal is to work together to achieve agricultural policies which will ensure dignity and security of income for farm families while enhancing the land for future generations.
