Farm Aid Distributes More than $1.3 Million in 2025 Grants

Farm Aid announced that it will distribute more than $1.3 million in grant funding this year to support family farmers, following the success of its 40th anniversary music and food festival, held in Minneapolis in September. Putting the proceeds of its annual festival to work to strengthen family farm agriculture, Farm Aid’s End of Year grant program advances the on-the-ground work of farm and food organizations across the country. This year’s grantmaking focuses on four issue areas: racial equity; farmer-led solutions to climate change; stopping the growth of industrial agriculture and corporate power; and providing support for farmers experiencing crisis and farm stress. A complete list of grant recipients is available online.
