Growing Change is a primer on the Farm Bill, a major piece of federal legislation that affects nutrition and farmers.

The Farm Bill is a major piece of agriculture and nutrition legislation that has a profound impact on public health. It not only affects farming and food production – it also ultimately determines the types of food we eat and how much it costs.
 
Community leaders across the country can play an important role in ensuring that Farm Bill spending helps promote health. ChangeLab Solutions developed this guide to show the links between their work and federal policy, and to help identify ways to get involved in the Farm Bill reauthorization process.
