Our May Speaker is Bonnie Sitter 

Topic: Who Were the Farmerettes? 

Discover the largely forgotten story of the young women who worked on Ontario farms during the Second World War. Bonnie Sitter shares where the Farmerettes lived and worked, what they accomplished, and how their contribution to food production supported Canada’s wartime effort.
