FARRMS has available resources to further support the education of new and beginning farmers. These resources allow for scholarships to participate in FARRMS programming, such as Farm Beginnings.

In addition, we are able to make scholarships possible for program participants to attend sustainable agriculture conferences through assisting or waiving registration fees and offering travel reimbursement. 

​

For those in need of financial support in the form of scholarships, we request that you address your financial need, future plans within agriculture, and willingness to give back to the program in future years.

​

Scholarships will be awarded based on need, motivated learning outcomes, prior number of FARRMS scholarships awarded, available resources.

You will be contacted upon review of your application. Scholarships will be awarded in the form of a reimbursement after attending the conference. Please keep all receipts.
