Farming is one of the most rewarding professions — but it can also be one of the most stressful. Economic uncertainty, weather variability, and long hours can take a toll on farmers’ mental health, particularly in rural communities across the Midwest and Great Plains. 

In this episode of Rooted In Tomorrow, we explore how Land O’Lakes, Inc. is advocating for farmers and supporting mental wellness through initiatives like Harvesting Hope, a series of community events designed to educate farmers and their families about the signs of stress and resources for support. Host Kim Olson discusses the importance of building networks of care, fostering resilience, and connecting rural residents with the help they need.

Listeners will gain insight into how cooperative principles, local engagement, and targeted programs are helping farmers across Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, and the broader American Heartland manage stress, improve well-being, and strengthen the long-term health of rural communities.
