A variety of grant and funding opportunities are available for beginning and established farmers, points out Nathan Rudgers, Farm Credit East’s director of business development. While “free money” can be tempting, navigating the process can be a challenge, and sometimes grants have significant strings attached, he adds. But the bottom line is that grant opportunities can enhance your business.
Rudgers will present the webinar and cover:
• information about available funding opportunities
• how to navigate the application process
• issues to consider when applying
It’s a one-hour webinar session, and it’s open to all interested Northeast farm-related businesses. And it’s free. To register, visit farmcrediteast.com/webinars.
