*FARM BILL FORUM & ADVOCACY WORKSHOP*
*TUESDAY, MARCH 27    |     2-6 PM*
CANNON TOWNSHIP HALL

Every five years, a massive piece of legislation called the Farm Bill
determines how
tens of billions of dollars will be spent to shape American agriculture and
rural communities.

Join the Izaak Walton League of America and the National Sustainable
Agriculture Coalition’s
Michigan Voices for Good Food Policy campaign to learn how the Farm Bill
impacts our food, soil, air, water, and budgets.

Share your thoughts on Michigan’s Farm Bill priorities,
and discover how you can help shape sustainable food and farm policies.
