Washington farmers looking to upgrade their equipment have a new funding opportunity.  The State Department of Agriculture is now accepting applications for its Climate-Smart Farm Equipment Grant Program, with $4.3 million available to help reimburse the cost of eligible equipment. 

 

The program supports purchases that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve soil health, and strengthen long-term farm resilience. 

 

Funding will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, so growers are encouraged to apply early.  Click Here to learn more about the program, or to apply.
