The Ohio Department of Agriculture is now accepting applications for the 2021 Specialty Crop Block Grant Program. To qualify, the grants must be used to support projects that raise awareness about and increase demand for specialty crops grown in Ohio. Eligible specialty crops include fresh fruits and vegetables, tree nuts, dried fruits, and horticulture and nursery crops, including floriculture.
Successful grant applications should explain how projects will improve specialty crop production through marketing and promotions, research, and development, expanding availability and access to specialty crops, or addressing local, regional, and national challenges confronting specialty crop producers. Preference will be given to projects that have the potential to significantly expand, enhance and improve production and demand.
Pennsylvania has plenty of breweries, but not a lot of hops. So a professor, a farmer and a brewer have teamed up to change that.
Alison Feeney, a geography professor at Shippensburg University, has been studying the local craft beer industry for 10 years, but it didnât take that long to realize that Pennsylvania is short on the key ingredient for beerâs aroma and flavor.
Most hops used in local brews are grown out of state, shipped from Oregon, Washington, Idaho or Germany.
âIn the last decade, weâve had small farmers kind of pop up here and there,â Feeney said. âIt is challenging to grow commercially and compete with those global markets.â
