Need more reasons to join? It’s all about who you know.

SAF is your connection to the Capitol! Not only do we keep you informed on the legislative and regulatory issues that impact your business, we put you in direct contact with your representatives in Congress and make sure that they get your message.

Do you sometimes feel like you’re going at it alone? SAF links you to hundreds of other growers who deal with the same situations and problems you do, and many of them can offer you solutions through the stories covered in SAF publications. Our online discussion boards, and connections you make by becoming involved and attending SAF events, SAF links you to the rest of the industry to help you understand what’s going on with suppliers, your customers, and issues in other segments of the supply chain that can directly affect you. And, if you’re connected and informed, you’re better prepared to handle problems when they arise, which gives you peace of mind about your business and your livelihood.

SAF membership is a great investment in yourself and your businesses.
