Welcome to LFRI

LFRI represents Latino farmers, Ranchers and producers throughout the U.S. we have served providing both advocacy and technical support. In some areas, we have been the only source of support to small and developing farmers and to the impoverished communities where many reside. Because of these needs, the LFRI has transitioned to a national and international organization with the administrative capacity to serve our members with boots on the ground. Moreover, we are now engaged in developing the necessary technical resources to assist our members in the various facets of agriculture, from cultivation to distribution to development of innovative food systems in their communities.

Our Mission

To protect, preserve, and serve historically discriminated against farmworkers, farmers and ranchers. Latino Farmers and Ranchers International Inc. will conduct activities in rural communities of the US and beyond. One hundred percent of LFRI”s time is dedicated to the mission of protecting, preserving and serving our constituents. Funding for the organization will come from grants, donations, fund raising activities and partnerships with 100% of funds being reinvested into the organization’s mission. Our mission and activities allow us to provide resources and opportunities for our constituents to have direct access to identified resources and opportunities both public and private that they have previously been denied. This allows our constituents to be self-sufficient and further develop and assist their communities. LFRI initiates local involvement and is the bridge to domestic, national and international markets for the opportunity that will assure success and sustainability especially within the most recent and current climate crisis events worldwide.

Grown With Love on Our Farms

“I consider farmworkers, farmers and ranchers as the most selﬂess and caring people I have ever met. It has been my greatest honor to have grown up with this community and to now be in a position to gather all of you and thank you for maintaining and nurturing our lifeline to humanity; growing food from seed to harvest keeps us all alive.”
