Join the UVM Extension Dairy Team and Orleans County Natural Resource Conservation District (OCNRCD) to learn about grants and funding opportunities that are available for dairy producers. We will review the different avenues for funding, the 2024-2025 schedule and what types of projects are eligible for funding with a special focus on funding for climate-smart agriculture. We will share tips and tricks for the application process and provide resources for technical assistance as well as discuss collecting supporting data and documentation for projects. The team will facilitate an interactive process for participants to build an effective farm description that encompasses the mission and vision for their operation which can be incorporated into any application. This workshop is specifically designed for Vermont dairy producers.

Free workshop with lunch provided by Orleans County NRCD. Please register online by December 2 at https://newportfundingopportunities.eventbrite.com.
