Join NYFC's Speakers Bureau!

NYFC seeks farmers from across the country to help us tell the story of the next generation of American growers. In the next year, we'll be reaching out to the press and elected officials and we need farmers with experiences to share.

We need farmers to speak out on:

  • Challenges that you've experienced in your farming career -- Access to land, capital, health care, student loans, training, etc.
  • Experiences with USDA and state programs -- Your experience with USDA and state programs -- Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), the National Organic Program, Farm Service Agency, etc. 
  • Benefits that your farm has brought to your community -- How has your farm created jobs, fed a community, improved a landscape
  • How your farm has evolved -- From start-up to success story
  • Great programs that you've participated in-- Apprenticeships, non-profit programs, state programs, college programs, land-links
