December 2025 - Sweetpotato Speak

It is clear that there is more advocacy and effort to be done. It is an honor to represent you and your family farm as I advocate for change to ensure future generations the ability to feed and clothe us all. This will be covered in further detail at the upcoming Annual Meeting of Members, January 15, 2026 at the Maxwell Center in Goldsboro, NC. I hope that you will join us. Note: At the time of this publication, the FOIA Coalition (now called the Ag Labor Coalition) has not received a formal response from the USDA to our FOIA filing, but our coalition has grown to over 35 organizations, including three national organizations and representing 8 states with a crop value of over $1 Trillion and 6.5 Million jobs. If you would like to learn more about our coalition and perhaps recommend other organizations to join, please feel free to contact me. michelle@ncsweetpotatoes.com
