| History of the Cultivators Fund Through our work as farmers, knowledge holders, community connectors, we are helping heal climate change and food apartheid. When we have emergent needs in our work, we need quick & accessible support. This fund began in 2022 as a way to help support our farmers with
critical, early season investments each year. In 2023 MFCC gave
out 19
mini grants, contributing to things like soil improvements, fencing,
value added product development, seed purchasing and more. Since the
creation of the Cultivator's Fund, we have continued to spread the word,
increase funding, and provide critical support to Farmers of Color
across the Midwest. |
