AFBF’s Farm State of Mind Campaign is hosting a free Mental Health Month virtual event on Tuesday, May 31, at 1 p.m. Central. Farmers, ranchers and their families are encouraged to attend via telephone, smartphone or tablet from planters, harvesters, greenhouses, dairy barns, wherever they are.  Three Farm Bureau members who believe that advocating for farmer mental health wellness is a way to save lives will share their stories.

Did you know that farmers die by suicide at a rate that is 2-5 times higher than the national average? Something as simple as sharing information, starting a conversation, listening and reaching out for help can help save a life. Learn more and register here.
