Get fresh updates on local and regional foods, agriculture news, important national news, events and more!
If you've been a member of the Agriculture Collaborative for a while now, you may remember our quarterly printed newsletter- The Agribusiness Connection. We are now excited to announce the replacement of that printed publication with a monthly e-format newsletter - Local Food Connections. This new publication will keep you better informed about local foods and agriculture in our Central New Mexico region.
