Emily Ford is a senior agronomist with Quattro Farms in Bow Island, Alta. Ford always knew she had a passion for agriculture, and spent her early career gaining new experiences at both ends of the country as she learned more about which environments she thrived in the most. Ultimately, Ford is driven by a passion for helping Canadians understand where their food comes from – and she executes this crucial advocacy through programming work with the Irvine Ag School, while also serving as a voice for producers through the Potato Growers of Alberta. She's also a Nuffield Scholar, and is the Canadian delegate for the Global Farmer Network Round Table.
