Conservation Cornerstone: Pennsylvania Right to Farm Laws
June 24 @ 8:30 am - 9:30 am
ABOUT THE LIVE WEBINAR
Conservation Cornerstone is a webinar series designed for agriculture professionals beginning their conservation journey. Pennsylvania’s Right to Farm Act (1982) and ACRE law (2005) limit municipal actions against certain farming practices, shaping the regulatory landscape for agriculture. Understanding these laws is key to navigating township and county ordinances affecting farm operations. Experts from Penn State Dickinson Law’s Center for Agricultural and Shale Law will provide insights into how these laws function and their impact on farming in Pennsylvania.
