Summertime is in full swing. For most that means warm weather and fun, for some it's the growing season and the busiest time of the year! We don't always know the challenges our neighboring farms and farmers face, but there's an organization that is looking out for them and making sure they've got resources to call on.
CISA - Community Involved in Sustaining Agriculture, is a group of hard working people who want to make sure buying local is as easy as possible. So, be a Local Hero! To find out what that means...
Check out our May Newsletter:
"Officially started in 1993, CISA (Community Involved in Sustaining Agriculture) is an organization dedicated to helping people who want to make a living off the land. They offer their members a wide range of assistance, including exposure through coordinated marketing campaigns and facilitating training in essential systems that farms and businesses need. Most folks involved in farming don’t come into the career with a background in labor laws, employee management, or financial analysis. Through workshops, one-on-one expertise sharing, and connections to consultants ranging from financial analysts to graphic and web designers, CISA provides resources through connection. They even offer emergency zero-interest lending programs for climate-impacted farms. The goal is to help local farms remain sustainable behind the scenes by bringing farmers into contact with the resources they need."
