Dear PASA community,
 
I am not affiliated with this program, just passing it along as an FYI:

Opportunities for Farmers and Agricultural Businesses to Receive Free Legal Services from the Penn State Law Rural Economic Development Clinic

The Penn State Law Rural Economic Development Clinic provides law students with practical legal experience in the food and agricultural sectors. Working under the close supervision of law faculty and staff attorneys who are licensed Pennsylvania attorneys, student attorneys can provide assistance to farmers and agricultural businesses in a variety of legal matters. This semester, the clinic is looking to assist farmers and agricultural businesses with legal issues, including the following: 
  • Compliance with legal requirements in hiring agricultural employees;
  • The provision of worker housing for agricultural workers including H2A employees;
  • Agricultural workforce issues involving hourly employees, volunteers, and interns;
  • Liability protection for agritourism operations;
  • Compliance with the American with Disabilities Act in agritourism operations and farmers’ markets;
  • Contracts / liability waivers for farm stays, wedding venues, camping, and other recreational activities on farm properties;
  • Contracts for the sale of agricultural products and services;
  • Farmers’ market rules or vendor agreements;
  • Leases for farmland; and
  • Solar leasing issues.
