Northeast Agricultural Education Foundation Grants

Applications are due each year by May 1.
The Northeast Agricultural Education Foundation supports nonprofit education and leadership training organizations dedicated to serving the interests of farmers and rural communities in the Northeast. The Foundation anticipates making 25 to 30 grants each year, generally ranging from $1,000 to $10,000 per grant. The Foundation will support organizations whose activities promote agricultural leadership development, help foster a better understanding of agriculture and/or our food production system, or improve the quality of life for farmers. The Foundation is particularly interested in projects that: 1) provide agricultural leadership training; 2) provide education about agriculture; 3) educate citizens, especially youth, about how food is produced and processed; or 4) promote farm safety awareness, especially those which educate and train farmers and their families.
