The @National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition recently wrote a review of a hearing gathering farmers, ranchers and advocates from across the country to talk about their experiences in direct sales.

“The hearing was, in many ways, the beginning of policy discussions that will inform the development of the next federal Farm Bill. It also represented a shifting of priorities in a climate where farmers, consumers and policymakers are more aware than ever about the importance of local and regional food systems to sustainable agriculture.”
