SUMMARY:Annual Ontario Potato Board Industry Social Golf Tournament
DESCRIPTION:The Ontario Potato Board is excited for their 3rd Annual Industry Social Golf Tournament! \nSadly\, the industry lost one of our own earlier this year. Mike Smalley was a strong supporter of our industry\, a board director and most importantly\, a friend. This year\, the 3rd Annual Ontario Potato Board Industry Social Golf Tournament will be held in memory of Mike. All proceeds will be donated to a charity of the Smalley family’s choosing. Let’s celebrate Mike at an event he so much enjoyed. \nAlthough all player spots for this year’s event have now been filled\, if you were late to sign up but still wish to play\, please contact the OPB who can add you to the waiting list.  If you have not already\, or are unable to attend and want to show your support\, please consider one of our sponsorship opportunities. We still need a few hole sponsors and prize donations are always welcome. \nWe are incredibly grateful to all sponsors as they are the ones that have made this event the success it is! \nhttps://www.ontariopotatoes.ca/contact-us \n

SUMMARY:International Day of Potato
DESCRIPTION:The potato represents one of the most important contributions of the Andean region to the entire world\, as it is one of the five main food crops consumed in the world\, contributing to food security. \nSmall-scale and family farming production of the potato\, particularly by rural farmers\, including women farmers\, supports efforts to reduce hunger\, malnutrition and poverty\, and achieve food security\, and relies on and contributes greatly to the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. \nIn December 2023\, the General Assembly decided to designate 30 May as the International Day of Potato to raise awareness of the multiple nutritional\, economic\, environmental and cultural values of the potato and its contribution as an invaluable food resource and as a generator of income for rural families and producers\, with a view to implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and achieving its Sustainable Development Goals. \n  \nSource: United Nations
