ADVOCACY

FARE Idaho advocates for policies that enhance the resilience and sustainability of our food system, ensuring that our independent farmers and producers thrive. 

FARM & AGRICULTURE POLICY

FARE Idaho supports initiatives that reduce regulatory burdens, enhancing the resilience of our food system. Protecting Idaho’s farmland and working lands is essential to maintaining our agricultural heritage and economic vitality. We advocate for policies that empower local farmers and producers, ensuring their continued success. 

FEDERAL POLICY

We support the Farm Bill Reauthorization to provide more resources for sustainable practices, promoting crop diversity and water conservation. The COWS Act, which focuses on innovative waste management, is another key initiative we back to improve the viability of small and medium-sized dairies.

LICENSED BEVERAGE POLICY 

FARE Idaho is committed to evolving Title 23 to address member concerns without creating new challenges. We believe in policies that respect the investments made by our businesses and enhance the value of their enterprises. 

LOCAL LAND USE 

We advocate for smart growth and sensible land use policies that protect our working lands and uphold strong property rights. Protecting working lands is essential for maintaining a stable food supply and a resilient local food system. 

AGRITOURISM 

We support agritourism as a vital component of our agricultural heritage and local economy. Promoting and protecting agritourism opportunities allows farmers and producers to diversify their income and engage the community in the agricultural experience.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT 

We foster collaboration among stakeholders to drive positive change in the industry, ensuring that our members can thrive in a supportive environment.
