National Young Farmers' Coalition - by young farmers for young farmers

RSVP for the Hudson Valley Farmers' Forum!

This will be a rare opportunity to hear from politicians and local experts about federal and state ag policies. Come ask the questions that have been on your mind, let your elected officials know what's important to you, and interact and hear from other farmers. The Farmers Forum is our chance as an agricultural community to tell our elected officials how they can support new farmers in the Hudson Valley. Bring your questions and concerns! We deserve farm policy that supports, not hinders, our ability to make a life farming in the Valley.

When: August 20th, 4 PM

Where: Columbia Greene Community College, Student Dining Hall
