National Young Farmers Coalition

The National Young Farmers Coalition is a grassroots network of beginning farmers, ranchers, and supporters working together for a brighter, more equitable future for U.S. agriculture. We envision a country where young people who are willing to work hard, get trained, and take a little risk can support themselves and their families in farming. The Coalition tackles the structural challenges preventing young people from succeeding in farming and ranching, such as access to land, credit, and skilled labor, climate challenges, health insurance, racial injustice, and student loan debt. Our approach includes work in three key areas: coalition building, policy advocacy, and business services.
