Providing Direct Support to Farmers in New England

Launched in 2020, the New England Farmer Microgrants Program (NEFMP) provides direct financial support to farmers across New England. Now in its fifth year, the program continues to address key barriers faced by New England farmers: access to land, farm succession and land transfer planning, and adopting regenerative agriculture or soil health practices on livestock operations.

Since its founding, NEFMP has awarded just over $2 million to 351 farmers across New England and is 100% donor funded. 

Western New England Regenerative Livestock Farming Grant

$10,000 grants through the Western New England Regenerative Livestock Farming conservation partnership project, aimed at livestock producers in select counties.

Farmland Access, Succession, and Transfer Grants

$5,000 grants for projects that facilitate farmland purchase/lease, or farm succession or transfer.
