It’s that time of year again!

This year, NFSHW will take place during the week of September 18-24, 2022 with daily topics of interest, listed below.
- Monday, 9/19 – Tractor Safety and Rural Roadway Safety
- Tuesday, 9/20 – Overall Farmer Health
- Wednesday, 9/21 – Safety and Health for Youth in Agriculture
- Thursday, 9/22 – Confined Spaces
- Friday, 9/23 – Safety and Health for Women in Agriculture
