We are all impacted by our food and farm system because we all eat.

More than ever, we need to let politicians know that farmers and local food systems need their support, and that the communities they serve care about these issues. https://t.co/AFGDjTkPQM

Accessing capital is one of the most important aspects of running an agricultural business, but opportunities can be hard to find. That’s why we created the Ag Funding Library – a one-stop shop for grants, loans and relief payment programs. https://t.co/cAZ94kmuM4

Michael Carter Jr. is the fifth generation to steward his family land. But a proposed transmission line tied to the region’s growing data center industry threatens the future of his farm, and farms across the region from West Virginia to Maryland.

[Farm Action @FarmActionUS]

A fifth-generation family farm is being threatened by infrastructure for data centers.

“My great-great-grandparents purchased this property November 5th, 1910, for $722.05.”

“We’ve maintained the farm now for the last 116 years.”

Now a proposed transmission line could run through the property as Virginia expands its electrical infrastructure to support data center growth.

“When you’re dealing with individuals or corporations or entities that don’t hold anything sacred, my family history and property doesn’t really matter to them.”

And his farm is far from alone.

“Every year there seems to be another community fighting it, and for every community that fights it and wins, there’s 3 or 4 or 5 communities who lose.”

Across rural America, farmers are being asked to give up farmland and resources to make way for massive data center expansion—putting their livelihoods at risk.

Development shouldn’t come at the expense of the people and land responsible for producing our food.

"Farm Aid has changed considerably since 1985... the reason for the music has not."
