Farming feeds our communities; but it can take a toll on those doing the work. Long hours, unpredictable weather, financial stress, and isolation can all impact mental health in agriculture.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and weโ€™re recognizing the strength it takes to keep going and the importance of reaching out when it feels overwhelming. Taking care of your mental health is just as important as caring for your land, your livestock, and your family. ๐Ÿ’š
