The Legal Food Hub and your New England attorneys are prepared to support farmers and nonprofits through the USDA appeals process. If your funding is in a gray area or has been terminated, we (and attorneys nationwide) highly suggest filing an appeal. It is a relatively straightforward process. It might not change the current outcome but, it will preserve your right to continue the fight for your government contracted funding. You can watch a short video about the process on the USDA’s website: USDA's National Appeals Division - Face to Face Fairness.
