HUNTINGDON - The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Farm Service Agency is inviting minority farmers and ranchers in Huntingdon and Blair counties to voluntarily join the USDA Minority Farm Register to receive information and opportunities from USDA agencies.
"The register is a shared outreach list that will help USDA, community-based organizations and minority-serving educational institutions to communicate with minority farmers and ranchers," said Melissa Webreck, Huntingdon/Blair County FSA county executive director in a statement.
By joining, minority producers may receive outreach materials, newsletters and program announcements from USDA agencies.
