Guiding Resilience

A Legal Workshop for Farm Service Providers

Agriculture professionals: Are the farmers and ranchers you work with asking you tough legal questions? Do you wish you knew how to get them answers?

Those answers aren’t always easy, even when it’s your job to help find them. Guiding Resilience is a legal workshop designed just for extension agents, nonprofit professionals, lenders, advocates, business advisors, and other agricultural service providers. This workshop empowers you to guide farmers and ranchers towards resolutions for their legal vulnerabilities. You will walk away from this five-session, highly interactive, and in-depth workshop ready to help farmers move forward from legal questions with confidence. Plus, you’ll have a new network of agriculture professionals to connect with on legal and other important topics.

How do I write an effective lease?
