The Rodale Institute has partnered with the Organic Farmers Association to offer a new “micro-grant” for small-scale, U.S.-based, BIPOC farmers. Potential awardees are Black, indigenous or people of color who are current or aspiring organic farmers.
Also eligible for a micro-grant are BIPOC students, interns and apprentices who work in some way with an organic operation.
