As we embrace the spring season ahead, USDA has announced a number of funding opportunities for sustainable agriculture. While all of these grants are exciting, it can be challenging to keep track of what is currently available. Below, we have collated all the information that food and farm organizations might need to best utilize the newly released funding resources.
