Source Protection Committee Member: Dave Ritchie
Dave has lived in Simcoe County all his life, where he was a dairy farmer for more than 30 years. During this time, he contributed strongly for many years to the important county dairy producer committee system, a grassroots approach which forms the foundation of the Dairy Farmers of Ontario.
Although retired from dairy production, Dave continues to be a cash crop and maple syrup producer. His wide range of experience has taught him the value of dialogue... of being willing to listen and take into account other perspectives in the development of policy.
