The Committee

The Policy Committee aims to become a resource for local farmers on a local, state and national level in order to address the immediate needs of beginning farmers and to ensure the future resilience of our farming community. The committee aims to make policy more transparent and navigable to members.

 

The Policy Committee's role is to unify the voices in Boulder under a platform by creating a protocol and facilitating opportunities for education and engagement regarding Policy.

Accomplishments
