Holstein Canada is pleased to offer a National Holstein Young Leader Convention program to Holstein enthusiasts aged 19-30.
The agenda for the program is developed around Holstein Canada’s Annual Holstein Convention which is held in a different province each year.
The program involves presentations, farm tours, on-farm workshops, and participation and attendance at the Annual General Meeting of Members and The Master Breeder Awards Gala.
