Horizon Farm Credit Grant

Horizon Farm Credit is excited to launch the Young, Beginning, and Small Farmer Grant Program, a new initiative replacing our JumpStart and Farmers on the Rise programs. This enhanced effort builds on the legacy of their previous grants while expanding eligibility to better reflect the diversity of today’s agricultural operations.

They will award ten $20,000 grants to farmers across their territory.

• Are 18-35 years of age or,
• Operate a small farm with less than $350,000 in annual gross cash farm income or,
• Are a beginning farmer with 10 years or less of Schedule F income

Eligible applicants must reside in Horizon Farm Credit’s territory and do not need to be a Farm Credit customer to win.
