Dear Neighbors,
I'm so pleased to announce that we just received word from Governor Ned Lamont that the U.S. Department of Agriculture has approved Connecticut's request to expand the natural disaster declaration. This approval means that Fairfield, Hartford, Litchfield, Middlesex, New London, and Windham counties have each been designated as primary natural disaster areas due to the drought - with New Haven and Tolland being named "contiguous disaster counties."
Any farm operators in the above mentioned counties are eligible for assistance.
