Soil to Supper Project Accepting Applications
Quivira Coalition’s Soil to Supper project supports producers to get more meat and other livestock products into regional supply chains while reducing waste, increasing soil health, and building climate resilience. Soil to Supper Project funds will help 50 producers transform agricultural and wood waste, finish livestock on grass, and help enhance biodiversity and potential carbon sequestration on the land. Livestock producers based in the southern half of Colorado, eastern Arizona, western Texas, or any part of New Mexico who are interested in participating should apply by February 1, 2025. Producers need to have at least 10 acres of unirrigated land to which they can apply organic amendment, and they need to have a Farm Service Agency number. Soil to Supper producers will receive direct financial assistance, get technical support from regional experts, and become part of a network of people supporting this important work.
