The Wilmot Township farmers at the centre of a controversial land assembly rejected approaches from the Region of Waterloo for one-on-one meetings.

After sending a handwritten note and a fact sheet to each farmer, Matthew Chandy, the region’s head of economic development, asked the farmers to reach out any time.

But the six farmers responded — speak to our lawyer.

“We are willing to meet, but the region has to meet with all of the land owners, together,“ said Stewart Schneider, a dairy farmer on Nafziger Road. “We all laughed when we saw it.“
