Young and Beginning Farmers in PA: Let's Get Organized!

Hello! My name is Emily Best, apprentice at New Morning Farm in Hustontown. This survey, built by young farmers/apprentices in central PA, is intended to determine the level of interest in forming a local chapter of the National Young Farmers' Coalition. The National Young Farmers’ Coalition (NYFC) is national network of young and sustainable farmers organizing for our collective success: we’re defining the issues that beginning farmers face, fighting for the policy change that we need, and bringing farmers together in person and online to learn, share and build a stronger community.

We feel that a central PA chapter of NYFC would help to highlight the specific needs and interests of our region's young and beginning farmers. The chapter would service as a complement to the great work done by PASA and other local groups, growing stronger the community of farmers in the state.

Your information will not be shared with any other entity or organization, and will remain strictly confidential. Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey!

Sincerely,
Emily Best
