E27: What You Need to Know about Homestead Legislation & Advocacy | Nick Freitas

Homesteaders of America

As homesteaders and farmers, local and federal regulations around food production and property rights impact us more than we might like to admit. Nick Freitas joins us today to break down what it looks like for average citizens to get involved in the legislative process and make a difference in their communities. Homesteaders, it is more important than ever to stay informed and make our voices heard!

In this episode, we cover:

• How to find out what is happening legislatively in the food freedom realm

• Easy ways that anyone can get involved in local policy

• Examining some specific food guidelines in the state of Virginia

• The importance of building a relationship with your delegates and senators

• Ways you can start advocating for change even if you don’t like politics

• The biggest impact you can make for the homesteading community may not be what you think
