A childhood spent on a family farm near the Ottawa Valley community of Beachburg proved to be an excellent training ground for a career in agriculture.
A former Renfrew County Dairy Princess, 4-H Club member and active participant at the Beachburg Fair, Crystal Mackay has grown up to become the executive director of the Ontario Farm Animal Council based in Guelph.
The council is a registered, non-profit agricultural, educational organization. OFAC represents Ontario’s 35,000 livestock and poultry farmers plus many other agricultural groups and businesses involved in animal agriculture and food production.
