ICE on the Farm: Complexities and Nuances
Date and Time: Friday, February 27, 2026, Noon Eastern, 11am Central, 10am Mountain, 9am Pacific
Simultaneous Spanish interpretation will be available during this webinar. Looking for this information in Spanish? Coming Soon.
Join us for this webinar to take a closer look at what federal law says about Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) access to farm property, including fields, homes, and other non-public areas. We’ll go beyond the simple directive that ICE can’t enter non-public areas by putting the law in context of the open fields doctrine and regulatory limitations. Participants will gain a clearer understanding of what options are available when officers arrive, where legal uncertainties currently stand, and opportunities to hold government accountable if ICE overreaches. We will also discuss practical steps for preparing your farm or organization.
Last but certainly not least, we’ll hear how Idaho Organization of Resource Councils is serving farmworker needs and responding to ICE in their community. Whether you are a farm owner, farm worker, or work for a nonprofit organization, folks will leave better equipped to make informed, thoughtful decisions with tools grounded in both the law and care for agricultural communities.
This program is a follow up to our December 4, 2025 webinar on I9s, Immigration, and ICE Raids on the farm. (Website is slow to load- we’re working on the fix.)
