There currently are 7 Cornerstones and they are not currently not in particular order of importance. It would be better to IGNORE THE NUMBERS and watch for the subtitles.  In the Master plan document, they will not be numbered either. 

The Joyfield PC welcomes comments and encourages anyone who is interested to come to meetings.   Contact info can be found on the Ag Session Results post.
