Burnbrae Farms and Swim Drink Fish - partnership to support clean water

General

Burnbrae Farms is pleased to partner with Swim Drink Fish to strengthen the movement for clean water in Canada. As Canada’s largest family owned and operated egg business founded in 1891, our egg cartons will proudly feature information for Canadians to contribute to a swimmable, drinkable, fishable future. These specially marked egg cartons will be on store shelves across Canada this summer and will feature a QR code that you can scan to download The Swim Guide App , which allows you to check the current water quality conditions at over 8,000 beaches, lakes, rivers, and swimming holes across Canada. And with every purchase of a specially marked Swim Drink Fish carton this summer, Burnbrae Farms will donate $0.50 (up to $25,000) to Swim Drink Fish to support clean water initiatives.

Burnbrae Farms works with farmers in many communities across Canada. We also recognize clean water is the foundation of those communities. Partnering with Swim Drink Fish demonstrates our commitment to being an industry leader in environmental sustainability. “As a sixth-generation Canadian family business selling egg and egg products for more than 75 years, Burnbrae Farms is dedicated to promoting environmental sustainability in communities across Canada. Burnbrae Farms is proud to support Swim Drink Fish and its incredible work on clean water”, Margaret Hudson, President, Burnbrae Farms.

Since its launch in 2001, Swim Drink Fish has operated initiatives like Great Lakes Guide, Swim Guide and Lake Ontario Waterkeeper connecting people to the waters.  It then trains those same people to collect and share water health data. That data can then inspire new restoration projects. “Burnbrae Farms has shown real leadership in protecting the natural environment.  We’re grateful to partner with Margaret Hudson and the Burnbrae Farms family to spread the Swim Drink Fish message across the country”, Mark Mattson, President, Swim Drink Fish.

Swim Drink Fish is a Canadian charity working for a swimmable, drinkable, fishable future since its launch in 2001. By blending science, law, education, and storytelling with technology, they empower millions of people to know and safeguard their waters.  To learn more visit: www.swimdrinkfish.ca .
