National Young Farmers Coalition announces Young Farmers Grant Program
The National Young Farmers Coalition is partnering with Chipotle to offer $5,000 grants to 50 young farmers and ranchers to support them in building careers in agriculture.
Applications will close on January 28, 2022 at 3pm ET. We will not accept late applications for any reason, so please plan to submit your application well before the deadline. Click here for more information and to apply.
These grants are available to farmers of all races and gender identities. To ensure that our grants are contributing to ending inequity in access to agricultural careers, we commit to providing a minimum of 50% of our grants to Black, Indigenous, and other people of color, and 50% of grants to female-identifying, non-binary, and trans farmers. These are not mutually exclusive identity categories and should not be understood as adding up to 100% of available grants.
