Negotiating a contract? Dealing with terminated funding from the USDA?
-
The Legal Food Hub (LFH), a program of the Conservation Law Foundation, has a online Resource Library full of great resources for land and sea farmers across coasts -- including some things you need to know if you're getting ready to sign or negotiate a contract. They also have a network of attorneys in the New England region who provide pro bono legal services to farmers who meet certain criteria (small to mid scale, income cap, etc).
Right now, the LFH is providing assistance to farm and food businesses and organizations dealing with frozen or terminated funding from the USDA. Apply and see their eligibility guidelines here: https://www.legalfoodhub.org/nad-app/.
