Murray State University’s grant facilitated participation in the national Young Farmers and Ranchers conference. The experience, which included networking, leadership workshops, and community service, inspired attendees to remain active in Farm Bureau activities.
The College of the Ozarks used their grant to support a community garden project in collaboration with Bridge of Faith. New composting and irrigation equipment were installed, and students actively participated in the project, benefiting local youth.
Washington State University applied their mini-grant to attend the Washington Farm Bureau’s Annual Meeting. The funding covered travel costs and allowed students to engage in discussions about agricultural policies and the farm bill.
The 2024-2025 AFBF Collegiate Farm Bureau Mini-Grant program is now accepting applications until September 21. Visit fb.org/cfbgrants or email yfr@fb.org for more information and application details.
