Sending an Inquiry Letter to Protect Your USDA Signed Agreement

This resource is for farmers and organizations who haven’t received written notice about the status of their USDA funding or aren’t ready to appeal a written funding freeze notice. This guide explains how to send a respectful, professional inquiry letter that asks for clarity, preserves your rights, and builds a paper trail. Includes sample letters you can easily adapt to your situation.

Timely, effective legal education requires expertise and time. We would love your partnership in ensuring we can continue to provide this information to farmers and their advocates for as long as necessary.
