Mental Health resources available to area farmers through MDA

Mental Health of farmers and others in rural America are often overlooked, and for that reason, the Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) has resources available called Coping with Farm and Rural Stress. Dr Angie Peltier of Minnesota Extension tells us more. 

If you know someone who is struggling, Peltier asks that you point them in the right direction. 

Peltier says resources like this are important to have, as people more than ever need to re-learn that we need each other.
