The New England Farmers Union

The New England Farmers Union works to protect and enhance the economic well-being and quality of life of family farmers, fishermen, foresters, nursery growers and consumers in all six New England states.

NEFU farmers and fishermen drive policy positions. Our members engage New England elected officials and public agencies, and press them to implement and enforce laws and regulations that will strengthen New England’s agriculture and fisheries.

Issues:
Dairy: NEFU works with lawmakers to ensure that our region’s dairy farmers have a voice in shaping policies that affect milk prices and regulations.
Direct Sales: NEFU fights to protect the economic viability of small-scale growers and producers.
Sustainability: New England farmers leverage resources from public agencies to develop sustainable practices that protect their long-term viability. NEFU educates legislators about how small investments in our region can have a significant impact on our food, the environment and our economy.
Conservation: NEFU advocates for policies that preserve our rural and coastal landscape while enhancing our region’s economic well-being.
Energy and Food Security: NEFU works to ensure that our children will live in a region that can feed and fuel itself.
