River Days of Action Lunch and Learn #3: How the Farm Bill Creates a Healthier Mississippi River and Why Your Action is Needed Today

What does agriculture and the Farm Bill have to do with our Mississippi River? Whether you are a farmer or someone who cares about the relationship between food, farms, and the River, please join us to learn more about this important piece of legislation and how it can be used to protect our River. The webinar will be held via Zoom on Friday, June 16, at noon CT.

During this “lunch and learn” webinar, we will be joined by:
