The U.S. Department of Agriculture is holding summits to promote the role of lesbian farmers as a part of its “Rural Pride” campaign.
The agency is working with singer and LGBT activist Cyndi Lauper for a “day of conversation” about the struggles of gay and transgender individuals in rural America. The agency says its wants to change the perception of what it means to be a farmer in America away from the “white, rich male.”
The latest summit, first reported by the College Fix, will be held on August 18 at Drake University in Iowa.
“The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Civil Rights, in collaboration with the National Center for Lesbian Rights and The True Colors Fund, will engage with LGBT rural communities across the country to host the LGBT Rural Summit Series,” the USDA said. “Each series will offer a unique opportunity for USDA and other federal agencies to share information relating to policies, programs, and services that exist to protect, promote and strengthen LGBT rural communities.”

We refer to those as “home wreckers” on my farm
Oh, what a f***ing joke-I live in a rural area, and the only lesbians here are “summer people” tourist types and a few snowbirds who stay in an RV park for the winter-they do not live here-they are tolerated, but not accepted as part of the community-and they are certainly not interesting in farming or ranching-the way we live out here is too basic and hard for them...
Let me guess, they grow carrots, cucumbers, corn...
For those who can afford to grow less common crops, those not so tight-fisted, so to say, turnips, rutabagas, eggplant...
Lesbian Farmers?
“Whatcha growing this year, Hank?”
“Lesbians.”
I can’t wait to see the lesbo farm exhibits at the county fair!
LOLOL !
Just saw your earlier post.
“I tell you. I’m not going to eat any food produced by a lesbian farmer!”
Especially the cucumbers.
Mindless resentment and rage are not about facts but about getting even, about inflicting pain and humiliation upon the object or objects of resentment and then if possible, destroying them entirely. Within this context, 'gays' and lesbians are useful tools just below useful Muslims.
Wait a sec, maybe the title meant lesbeans farmers?
Putting the “bull” in bull dyke.
Yes, turkey basters are not the preferred equipment for seeding a field.
Come-on moose, enough of the King's English :-)
Yeah. I know lots of farmers. All White males, heterosexual, married to women but ain’t none of ‘em rich!
Do lesbian farmers get a normal “farmer’s tan?”
Tractor seats make sensational vibrators.
There’s just something Norman Rockwellesque about 2 lesbians anxiously watching whether a hailstorm will wipe out their crops!
They’ve got the flannel shirts and boots thing down pat.
“Bullying will also be discussed.”
Must be something to do with raising cattle, I would imagine.
I was going to mention animal husbandry but I don’t think we want to go there...
