Welcome to
agwellAB

Agricultural Well-Being in Alberta (agwellAB) is a team based at the University of Alberta's Augustana Campus. We work with farmers, organizations, and industry experts to support the mental health and well-being of Alberta's farmers and the rural communities they contribute to and rely on.

We're glad you're here!

Our Goals

Farmer well-being is more than just getting mental health support — it’s about having the tools, resources, and community backing to manage stress before it becomes overwhelming. Planning for the future, learning new skills, talking with peers, taking breaks, and feeling valued for the work they do all contribute to keeping farmers well through every season.

With this in mind, our goals are simple: We connect with farmers and communities, listen to their experiences, and work together to turn knowledge into practical solutions that make a real difference.
