Accessing Funding for Raised Garden Beds with the USDA
September 26 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Learn how to access funding for raised beds for your farm or garden during this workshop with USDA staff and hear firsthand experience.
Join our latest webinar to learn how to access funding for raised garden beds for your farm or garden! During this workshop you will hear from USDA staff from NRCS (Natural Resources Conservation Service) and the Philadelphia chapter of the FSA (Farm Service Agency). You will also hear firsthand from an urban grower at Mary’s Daughters farm who has installed raised beds through NRCS’s EQIP program (Environmental Quality Incentives Program). NRCS staff will explain how they work with growers to conserve natural resources through a program like EQIP; and FSA staff will explain how they work with growers to set up the necessary farm records to apply for a program like EQIP.
