Partnership. Advocacy. Progress. 🌱
It was a productive week in Washington, D.C. for NBGC!
We connected with sustaining members and partners at Farm Credit, Syngenta, Bunge, PepsiCo and Cargill to share NBGC’s accomplishments, discuss our goals for the year ahead and identify new opportunities to strengthen our work together.
We also took our farmers’ voices to Capitol Hill, joining agricultural partners to advocate around the Farm Bill and priorities impacting farmers across America.
From the boardroom to Capitol Hill, NBGC is working to strengthen partnerships, amplify farmer voices and create opportunities for the farmers we serve.
Thank you to our partners and the individuals who took time to meet, connect and share ideas with us throughout the week. We appreciate your continued partnership and look forward to what we can accomplish together. 🌾

🌱 Wrapping Up the 2026 Model Farm Field Day Series! 🚜
On September 4, 2026, the final stop of this year’s Model Farm Field Day Series brought us to Woodburn, Kentucky, at Bunton Farms and Trucking, hosted by Ronald Bunton, a fourth-generation farmer whose operation focuses on corn and soybeans.
Throughout the 2026 series, farmers, agricultural professionals, and partners came together in the field to share knowledge, experiences, and conversations that help strengthen our farming communities.
We’re grateful to Ronald Bunton and the Bunton Farms and Trucking team for hosting us and to all of the farmers, partners, speakers, and supporters who helped make this year’s series possible.

September is Suicide Awareness Month. 💚
Farmers and members of our agricultural community face pressures that aren’t always visible. This month, we’re encouraging everyone to take a moment to check in on the people around you.
Ask how someone is really doing. Listen without judgment. Remind them that they don’t have to face difficult moments alone.
A conversation can make a difference. 💚🌱
