SUMMARY:Value-Added Producer Grant Scholarship Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a webinar on Tuesday\, January 9th from 4:00-5:30pm to learn about the USDA Value-Added Producer Grant program and how to apply for the CAFF VAPG scholarship program.\nRegister for the webinar HERE\nDo you sell your produce as organic\, local\, free range\, grass fed\, etc. OR make a value-added product from your produce? Are you interested in exploring the feasibility of doing so? The Value-Added Producer Grant (VAPG) provides funding to farmers (and other qualified stakeholders) that can be used towards producing a value-added product. \nCAFF is reopening our VAPG scholarship program to help support farmers with VAPG applications. The scholarship offsets the cost of one-on-one grant writing with Ellen Rawley Creative & Strategy\, Inc. If awarded\, farmers will work with Ellen to plan out an eligible project\, construct a fundable budget for up to $49\,998 worth of government funding\, and write a complete grant application.\n\n\nThe first 30 people that register for the event will also receive a free annual membership to Farm Common’s membership – valued at $99! The Farm Commons portal offers access to loads of legal education resources and interactive discussion boards. They also have resources related to value added product legal education.\n  \nNote: By signing up for this webinar you will be added to the email list of Ellen Rawley Creative & Strategy\, Inc. You can opt out of emails at any time.
