Hi Folks,

As the winter begins, many farmers and ranchers are reviewing their
business structures, considering diversification options, and developing
strategic marketing goals and events for the upcoming year. Wintertime
offers the perfect opportunity for farmers to jumpstart another season by
resolving their legal vulnerabilities. At Farm Commons we believe:

*Every farmer and rancher can build legal resilience.*
* Every agriculture support person can help them get there.  *

*Beginning in just two weeks*, we are offering two online interactive
workshops to help you realize this vision. *Reserve your spot today because
tickets are going fast.*

Discovering Resilience
<https://farmcommons.org/workshops/discovering-resilience/?utm_source=generallistserv&utm_medium=listserv&utm_campaign=aprildr>
 empowers *farmers and ranchers* with the knowledge to identify and resolve
their most pressing legal vulnerabilities. Upon completing this 5-week
interactive workshop you’ll learn the 10 best practices of farm legal risk
management, build an individualized action plan so that you can take
immediate steps to build your farm’s legal resiliency, and connect with
other farmers going through similar situations.

Guiding Resilience <https://farmcommons.org/workshops/guiding-resilience/>
 empowers *agricultural support providers* to guide farmers and ranchers
towards resolution of their legal vulnerabilities. Be there for them when
your producers ask legal questions without creating more risk (for yourself
or anyone else). This 5-week interactive workshop keeps you engaged and
gives you the info you need while networking with colleagues in the field.
