Collapse ▲Our hearts are heavy for all affected by Hurricane Helene across the Southeast, particularly in Western North Carolina and Upstate South Carolina.
The massive destruction is devastating for the regional food system, as farmland, natural resources and infrastructure are overwhelmed by flood waters.
Farms are facing loss of crops, livestock, structures, equipment and the organic topsoil that many have spent decades carefully cultivating, to say nothing of the immediate risks to personal safety.
Although it is too early to know the full extent of the devastation, we are comforted by the power of community we’re witnessing, from grassroots mutual aid networks taking shape to outpourings of financial support from across the nation.
Many of you have asked us how you can help. As we continue to assess areas of greatest need in collaboration with our community partners, we have compiled a running document of community-led resources, funds, and projects for use in the immediate term – linked below.
Running Resources for Helene Response & Relief
- Document the damage with timestamped photographs and video.
- List the repairs needed and any costs associated with these.
- When it is possible, contact your local USDA office to make a report.
All CFSA Staff and Board members are safe and accounted for at this time. In the coming days and weeks, we will be mobilizing outreach efforts to farmers, food businesses, and food hubs in the affected communities and will keep our network updated as we develop strategies focused on long-term recovery.
Know that CFSA is here for you and working as always for farmers across the Carolinas.
Roland McReynolds,
CFSA Executive Director
