About June's Farmer to Farmer Meeting
Looking for funding opportunities to help grow your farm or food business? Join us on June 11 from 1:00–2:00 PM for our next Beginning Farmer to Farmer gathering featuring Katie Nixon, New Growth’s Food Systems Director and organic farmer from Hickory County.
Katie will provide an overview of the Heartland Food Business Coalition Harvest to Market Grant, including eligibility requirements, funding opportunities, and how this program can support farmers and food entrepreneurs looking to strengthen and expand their operations.
Whether you’re exploring grant opportunities for the first time or preparing for a future application, this session will provide valuable information and practical guidance.
Come connect with fellow farmers, learn about available resources, and discover how grant funding could help move your business forward. We hope to see you there!
