Many times people in agriculture apply for loans, grants, or other financial support from the USDA. When they are denied, there is a free resource to appeal.

In today’s episode Archie interviews Tezra Woody, the Regional Director for the Southern Region of the USDA National Appeals Division. She shares reasons a person may want to appeal and the free process. 

Her personal story of growing up on a truck patch farm to the military, to law school, to the Army JAG Corps, and now to the National Appeals Division is inspiring and encouraging for anyone who has big dreams.

More information on the appeals process, visit the National Appeals Division at 

www.nad.usda.gov. There are links to the application as well as other ways to contact NAD.

You can also watch a video on the appeals division on YouTube.
