From the Small Business Development Center (SBDC):

This webinar series will provide plain-language examples of how five Pennsylvania laws—the Agricultural Area Security Law; the Agricultural Conservation Easement Purchase Program; Clean & Green Taxation; Right to Farm Law; the Agriculture, Communities and Rural Environment (ACRE) law; and the Agritourism Activity Protection Act—can help you preserve and protect your farm’s economic vitality and viability. Each of these very important laws contains legal protections that reduce risks and liabilities threatening your business plans and success. Join us to begin applying the potential benefits of these legal tools to reach your business goals in 2024 and beyond.

Co-sponsored by The University of Scranton SBDC, the PA SBDC Agriculture Center of Excellence, and the Penn State Center for Agricultural and Shale Law, these two-90-minute educational sessions are designed to provide information to producers who may be contemplating using the provisions of Pennsylvania law to gain greater farm sustainability. It will equip you to evaluate if, and how, specific laws and programs might work as risk management steps on your farm.
