A voice for the people doing the work.
Farm Team sends alerts when legislation touches your operation. FAACT, Future Advocates for Agriculture Concerned About Tomorrow, has run since 2003: an eight-month series for community leaders, and more than 200 people have participated.
CEO Ryan Jacobsen is the fourth generation of two Fresno County farm families, on staff since 2004, and hosted Valley’s Gold on Valley PBS for five seasons.
The Fresno County Farm Bureau headed up by CEO Ryan Jacobsen often represents the top county in agriculture receipts. Fresno County is a powerhouse of valuable specialty crops, and Jacobsen is a great spokesman for the industry in Fresno County!
