Coffee Shop Talks - Wilkie

  • Wilkie Community Hall 3 Avenue Wilkie, SK, S0K 4W0 Canada (map)

Coffee Shop Talks is back!


Sask Wheat is thrilled to be bringing this event to producers once again for the second season. In March, we brought researchers and experts to YOU in Rosthern and Gravelbourg. This season, we have chose to bring the knowledge to Moose Jaw and Cupar this winter, with St. Brieux, Wilkie and Prince Albert locations in the new year of 2024!

Coffee Shop Talks are informal events where we bring industry educators, researchers and you - the farmer - together to encourage communication and growth in knowledge. Not only will you have a chance to learn and network, but we also host these events at a location comfortable for you.

These events will have no planned presentations, which will provide opportunities to cover the agriculture topics you are curious or concerned about by giving you direct access to your peers and industry experts. Great discussions lead to increased knowledge, a better sense of community, and an improved use of current on-farm agronomy research.
