Organic Dairy Product Promotion Grant

/in

Applications are due by July 31, 2025.
The Northeast Dairy Business Innovation Center is accepting applications for funding through the Organic Dairy Product Promotion Grant program to facilitate an increase of regionally produced USDA-certified organic dairy products in youth-serving institutions. Funds can only be used to purchase organic dairy products for use in youth-focused institutional food service programs. There is preference for projects that demonstrate a likelihood of continuing to purchase organic dairy products beyond the grant period, supporting long-term market opportunities for regional organic dairy producers. Grant awards range from $50,000 to $500,000 with no match requirement and a total of $1.75 million available. The program serves Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
