The first round of Business Builder Subawards (BBS) has closed. But there’s good news – the next round opens March 3! If you’re a small- to medium-sized farm or food business in need of a grant up to $100,000, now is the time to start working with our team to make sure you’re ready to apply.
Our virtual OR in-person Winter Business Intensive is a free, 8-class course for beginning or expanding agriculture producers, aggregators, distributors, markets, or more. By the end of the complete course, you will have a business plan and be prepared to apply for a Business Builder Subaward (BBS).
Are you ready for a deep dive into specific Agroforestry topics? If so, bring your questions for our outstanding regional Agroforestry guest speakers. This season’s series will be offered midday as a virtual “Lunch and Learn” opportunity. All five sessions are free and will occur from 12:00-1:30 EST.
