| | Hi Friend,
The holiday season is just around the corner. We invite you to kick it off with us on Giving Tuesday, November 27, by donating to the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund!
Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving back. On the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, you’ll have the chance to join people around the world and support a cause close to your heart.
This Giving Tuesday, help us give the gift of support for our farming community. We show up every day to serve our members and protect their right to do what they do best— to produce nutrient-dense food. 2018 has been no different; so far we have: - Responded to more than 600 member inquiries ranging from consultation to litigation
- Acted on more than 150 emergency hotline legal calls
- Consulted on over 100 herd share agreements for our members
- Provided over 2,000 hours of legal services directly attending to member needs
- Expanded and organized local legal counsel on the ground for in-person, direct farmer support
You see we are often the only way that farmers can push back against the government, and to not be bullied. With help from you and your support for the food freedom movement, sometimes we can bully them back.
Mark your calendars, spread the word, and stay tuned for more details!
