PSA:
Congress hears from lobbyists every day. On Tuesday, November 10 at 9:30 AM CT, we want them to hear directly from farmers, ranchers, and the people working to strengthen local food systems.
Join FARFA’s Virtual Fly-In and meet directly with congressional offices to advocate for independent agriculture.

Our primary focus will be building support for the bipartisan Egg Grower Grading Modernization (EGG) Act.
The EGG Act would create a pathway for farms with 3,000 or fewer laying hens to sell ungraded eggs to restaurants, retailers, and other food establishments within their state while maintaining food safety, refrigeration, labeling, and traceability requirements.
But our work doesn't stop with eggs.
We'll also discuss FARFA's broader federal priorities, including the LOCAL Foods Act and PRIME Act, and the need for federal policies that expand local processing, strengthen independent producers, and create fairer markets.
These policies affect real farms and real livelihoods, and your experience can make the case more powerfully than any fact sheet.
FARFA will provide participants with training, talking points, and support. You provide the most important part: your story.
