Farming isn’t easy and you don’t have to face challenges alone. The Wisconsin Farm Center offers free, confidential support for farmers and their families. Through Farm Neighbors Care, we’re reminding everyone to check in, listen, and connect neighbors with help when they need it.

The Farm Neighbors Care campaign encourages us to take small, intentional steps for our own well-being and to lift up our neighbors along the way. If you or someone you know is struggling, contact the Wisconsin Farm Center today!

Here are a few ways you can help yourself and others with mental health.

💆‍♂️ For Yourself:
🗓️ Set a routine to bring calm to busy days.
📋 Plan ahead to reduce stress during harvest and school schedules.
❌ Let go of an unnecessary task and give yourself grace.

🤝 For Friends, Neighbors & Family:
🏡 Organize a neighborhood event to bring people together.
☕ Invite someone to coffee or lunch for a meaningful break.
🎒 Support someone returning to school or work with encouragement or a helping hand.

The deadline for comments on the proposed changes to ATCP 10 and 12 regulating Animal Disease and Movement and Animal Markets, Dealers and Truckers is TOMORROW. These changes include massive fee increases, some nearly 1700% above current rates. These proposed fees present a substantial financial burden to markets, dealers and truckers that will unavoidably be passed down to farmers.

Copies of the proposals and details on how to submit comments are available at https://wfbf.com/atcp-10-12/.
