Managing Stress in Unprecedented Times

While New York farms are considered an essential business (as if that needed to be started), yet they too are feeling the stress of COVID-19. Farms now have some new resources from NY FarmNet at their disposal. “Managing Stress in Unprecedented Times” is a one pager for anyone, not just farmers, seeking to manage stress. It is easy to read, explaining the difference between stress and distress while offering some tips on how to manage these uncertain times. The second resource on “Managing Financial Stress on the Farm in Uncertain Times” is directed to the farm community to accomplish what the title suggests. 

Farmers overwhelmed during this uncertain period have a resource in NY FarmNet to turn to which offers free confidential consulting. If financial and/or personal and family stress are causing issues on your farm, give Farm Net a call at 1-800-547-3276 or contact them through their website at www.nyfarmnet.org. This is no time to be a hero; seeking help is not a sign of weakness but one of strength.
