This is a great example of a farm grant at work. It is a bit unique because it isn’t directly given to a farm or farmer for farm expenses, but instead it is helping to fund “Rural Education Days.” The funds allow students to visit the Many Blessings Dairy Farm and the Crooked Lake Campground; students hear from speakers covering Food Power, Livestock, Watershed Education and many more farm-related topics.
Creative ideas like this can help funnel additional money into your farm! Publicity as well as marketing etc… and you can even have products for sale during the “rural education days”
think of how much revenue something like this could bring in if you are in the middle of a harvest season.
