National Young Farmers Coalition Grant - Application Deadline

In 2020 The National Young Farmers Coalition (Young Farmers) launched a new grant program to help young and beginning farmers and ranchers start up and grow their businesses. The program provided 50 farmers and ranchers with $5,000 grants in the spring of 2020. Grant recipients also received a one-year membership to the National Young Farmers Coalition.

Now in their third year of the program, we will once again be offering 50 grants to a new cohort of young farmers and ranchers in 2022. Forty-five awards will go to businesses already in operation, and five to projects starting in 2022. The grant program is available to support farmers and ranchers in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, in addition to the 50 states and Washington D.C.

APPLICATIONS FOR 2022 YOUNG FARMER GRANTS ARE OPEN!

Applications will close in on January 28, 2022 at 3pm ET. Late applications are not accepted, so please plan to submit your application well before the deadline.
