The opportunity to open the barn door and visit a typical Ontario farm online is now available by visiting the Animal Agriculture Photo Library. The library was created to provide those in agriculture education, teachers, students and media an opportunity to access accurate, up to date photographs of Ontario agriculture. In the library you will find pictures of farm animals, farm families, animal care and handling practices, modern barns and food processing plants. This is your chance to visit several Ontario farms, meet some farm families and learn about Ontario animal agriculture, all without leaving the comfort of your home.

Any images used from the library must be credited to the OFAC Animal Agriculture Photo Library. Images are for personal use only and may not be used for any commercial purpose. For more information on the permitted uses of these images, visit the "terms" section of this site.

The Ontario Farm Animal Council (OFAC) is a registered non-profit educational organization. OFAC represents Ontario's 35,000 livestock and poultry farmers, plus many other agri-food groups and businesses involved in animal agriculture and food production.

The Ontario Animal Agriculture Photograph Library was created by a partnership between the Ontario Farm Animal Council, Ontario Cattlemen's Association, Chicken Farmers of Ontario, Ontario Pork, Ontario Egg Producers, Ontario Veal Association, Ontario Turkey Producers' Marketing Board, Dairy Farmers of Ontario, Ontario Sheep Marketing Association and Ontario Goat Breeders' Association. Funding for the Animal Agriculture Photograph Library was provided by each of the partner groups listed above along with a grant from the Small Projects Initiative program from Agricultural Adaptation Council (http://www.adaptcouncil.org/) in partnership with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's CARD fund.
