WATCH "AT HOME WITH FARM AID" THIS SATURDAY! [[link removed]]

Dear Farm Aid Family,

The COVID-19 pandemic is creating challenges and uncertainty for all of us. I want you to know that I’m thinking about you. I also hope you see that there are sources of light all around us. Right now, those lights are our healthcare workers, our sanitation workers, the delivery drivers and postal workers, and the people who keep our lights on. Farmers, ranchers and those who work all along the food chain are also essential workers. [[link removed]]

Just like the rest of us, farmers face uncertainty too. Many have already lost access to the markets that keep them in business. Others are dealing with a drastic drop in the prices they receive for their products.

Farm Aid is working hard to support farmers and ranchers in this difficult time. We’re making emergency grants to help with household and medical expenses. We’re answering calls on our hotline. We’re creating lists of resource and working with our partners to advocate for policies that build a more resilient food system for the future.

You can help too! Donate now [[link removed]], if you can, to help us provide these critical services.

On the Farm Aid stage last September, my friend and fellow board member John Mellencamp said, “Be hopeful about, have faith in, and be grateful for right now; the miracle of life is in the dirt under our farmers’ fingernails.” He was right and I’m so grateful for the farmers, ranchers, and farmworkers who are on the front lines sustaining all our communities.

Now, more than ever, stay strong and positive,

Willie Nelson

HELP FAMILY FARMERS IN THIS CRITICAL TIME [[link removed]]

Times of crisis give us each an opportunity to make a difference, in big ways and in small. We know not everyone is in a position to offer financial support right now. If you’re able to give, family farmers sure could use support in any amount [[link removed]]. And if you’re unable to give to Farm Aid, check out other ways you can support family farmers at this time [[link removed]].

SUPPORT FAMILY FARMERS! [[link removed]]
