"Center for Latino Farmers"

"Farm workers to Farm Owners"

Our Mission:

The Center for Latino Farmers (Center) was established in 2001 by Rural Community Development Resources (RCDR) to work with primarily Spanish-speaking farm workers in their transition to farm ownership. The program was designed to empower the agricultural communities of Washington State through development of the individual.

Objectives:

The Center empowers new and emerging farmers to efficiently and effectively run their businesses by connecting them to USDA services, providing training workshops, preparing loan packages, and providing one-on-one technical assistance services. Services are provided individually or in group settings in both Spanish and English.
