Many farmers are reluctant to change management techniques without knowing how much the soil health practices will cost or benefit them. So, @Farmland found “soil health successful farmers,” and conducted benefit-cost analyses. nature.ly/2TyYeLW

I'm loving this dialogue about leadership emerging through women's learning circles on land. Powerful words from @Caitlin__Joseph: "These are women who, within their lifetime, couldn't get a credit card on their own." Thanks Caitlin, @G_Roesch @gplot @Farmland for your work!
When I lived in Eugene, trips to out to the @Tillamook store on the Oregon coast were probably a little too frequent.
Excited that my love of fresh cheese curds and protecting farmland are coming together in this new partnership. We're going to do a lot of good! #AllForFarmers
At Tillamook, we're #AllForFarmers. Buy Tillamook this September and 10%* of your purchase will go to @Farmland. *Up to a total donation of not more than $1.6 million. Based on all Tillamook branded purchases within the month of September.
Friends, please share your thoughts and experiences with us! @Farmland
As we celebrate #WomensEqualityDay, we’re reflecting on the ongoing journey to realize women’s equal access to leadership & resources in agriculture. #WomenInAg: What is your relationship to agriculture? What would #genderequity in #agriculture look like to you? #WomenfortheLand

I’m a 4th generation farmer, and my great-grandmother was the one who really drove our family’s farming efforts and taught my dad. #GenderEquality in farming starts w/ seeing women as capable farmers and recognizing that they always have been even w/o official titles.

Dairy farms across the northeast are struggling due to the COVID-19 crisis. On Ep. 6 of “Farming in a Pandemic,” Amanda Freund of Freund’s Family Farm talks about how dairy farms are adjusting to the new supply chain demands.
I had the pleasure of talking with @CattWhite for Episode 2 of the new @Farmland web series "Farming in a Pandemic" about what it's like to be on the frontlines of efforts to keep markets open for farmers and communities. Watch the full episode: farmland.org/pandemic
When rules, regulations, and guidance related to COVID-19 changes every day, it's amazing the adaptability market operators like @CattWhite have shown to keep local food flowing to communities while making sure farmers, staff, and the public stay safe.
