working together for a just food and farm policy

Our Recent Work

The Rural Coalition continues to work in Maryland, Virginia, and DC to develop an integrated approach to helping New, Beginning, and Socially-Disadvantaged Farmers.  Rural Coalition has been holding events that have included farmers, community-based organizations, and Federal and State agencies. 

"For Maryland Rural Communities to succeed we need a State level integrated approach to helping them reach their dreams and hopes in farming that inlcudes federal/state agencies, community-based organizations, and active farmer input." ~2011 Maryland Small Farm Pre-Conference
