November/December 2020: AgrAbility PA Project Highlights
Milder weather in the Mid-Atlantic region continued into the months of November and December – allowing AgrAbility PA to continue on with its scheduled farm assessments.
AgrAbility PA participated in a number of online and virtual opportunities to network and raise awareness about the project, including the Pennsylvania Farm Bureau Annual Conference, Farmer Veteran Coalition conference, and a presentation to NRCS field staff about AgrAbility, disability awareness, person-first language, and working with farmers who have disabilities.
AgrAbility PA has added new, educational articles written specifically for farmers and agricultural workers with a disability or long-term health condition who are working in production agriculture. More articles are planned for the year ahead as the staff focuses on broadening the topics and available formats, including videos.
