Local Resource Concerns: survey via USDA

[Kim Jordan]

Good afternoon all,

Our colleagues at the USDA asked us to share info about this survey (linked here, with a flyer called LGW Handout linked to this email) so they can better understand and direct resources towards the areas of most concern to us as urban growers. 

Nina Berryman, the new head of Philly's USDA office, says:

Please see the attached handout with a survey to gather community input on local conservation concerns. Over the next 5 years an influx of funding will be available to implement climate smart, sustainable, regenerative conservation practices and NRCS wants input from community members to help identify resource concerns.

Any questions, please contact Freddie Patino-Rodriguez (see contact info below). Feel free to share widely.
