Fitness  for Farm Life is an educational program aimed at improving the quality or work and life for agricultural workers of all ages and abilities.

The goal of this program is to show you that by taking some small steps to care for our bodies and physical health, then in turn you can improve and preserve your physical abilities to continue doing what all of us here love-farming.

May 19 – Fitness for Farm Life: Health, wellness and pain management
