From growing up on a small Quebec dairy farm; to undergrad and masters degrees in Agricultural Engineering and Engineering; to a career as an Extension Agricultural Engineer with OMAFA; and now in semi-retirement as a Sustainability Auditor with Ontario's grape and wine industry; Hugh has witnessed and participated in almost every technological change on the farm you can imagine. Hugh will show dozens of photos of what he’s seen on the farm over the past 50 years, and peer into what he sees coming.
