The Logan County Farm Bureau announces that the fourth year of the Logan County Agriculture Impact Fund grants are now available.
The grant program was created by funds raised from the Logan County Farm Bureau Agriculture Impact Fund Reverse Raffle event conducted each spring to encourage youth development in agriculture.
“Our hope is to award as many projects as we can in order to see agriculture’s footprint expand in the county. In the previous years of the program, the county was able to award over $35,000 in grant funds for agriculture projects in our county,” Farm Bureau Organization Director Jill Smith said.
Grants will be offered to any organization in Logan County that promotes the well-being, and enrichment of youth involved in the agriculture community of the county.
Grants will be evaluated on a competitive basis and projects submitted for the grant must be completed by the 2022 year end.
Grant timeline:
• Submissions may begin after Sept. 1, with applications due Oct. 15;
• Upon submission grants will go through two review committees;
• Recipients will be notified by Dec. 1 regarding their success in the application process; and
• Completed project reports will be due to the committee by Nov. 30 the following year and final payment will be processed.
Grant applications are available at jsmith or call the Farm Bureau office at (877) 775-7642 for assistance.
