Disaster Relief Resources​

Disaster relief for underserved farmers across the Southern U.S. is vital to safeguarding rural economies, preserving agricultural heritage, and supporting communities facing recurring natural hardships. Many Southern farmers, particularly those from historically underserved communities, experience significant challenges in accessing timely resources, financial aid, and recovery support after disasters. The resources below represent our collaborative and cooperative brothers and sisters' efforts to identify resources to help those in need. We aim to ensure farmers have the tools and support to recover swiftly and continue contributing to the region's food security and economic vitality.
