2025 Annual Report
As we move into a new fiscal year, we’re pausing to look back on what we achieved in 2025. Our newly released annual report highlights the partnerships formed, the projects completed, and the directions we’re heading to build a thriving future at OFN.
Our work this year focused on strengthening local food systems, accelerating regenerative agriculture, and advancing open technology. We also completed two significant projects supporting farmers in the specialty cut flower sector, a rapidly growing space where we see real opportunity.
Mapping Quebec’s Food Logistics Hubs
From February to October 2025, partners collaborated to create a map of Quebec’s short food supply chain landscape, highlighting the logistics hubs and local initiatives that connect producers to their communities.
Open Flower Network
In March, we celebrated the close of a multi-year initiative to help women and gender diverse flower farmers connect, scale, and succeed in the specialty cut flower sector.
Sustainable Cut Flowers Direct – Greenbelt
Through the summer and fall, this regional program worked to strengthen floral supply chains across Ontario’s Greenbelt region.
Grazing Lands Carbon Data Initiative
Launched as a prototype phase in January 2026, this new multi-stakeholder initiative is designed to strengthen the data foundations of regenerative grazing.
To explore these projects and other highlights of the year, we invite you to read our Annual Report.
We have plenty to look forward to in 2026, with big improvements coming to the OFN platform and new projects on the horizon. None of this work could happen without the funders, partners, and especially the farmers and hub organizers at the heart of the Open Food Network platform. Thank you for being part of a better future for food and farming.
