We've added a few more resources to the Food + Ag Flood Recovery Resources page that we co-developed in partnership with @farmallianceky, @Organicky, @KYHorticulture, and the @KYCenterforAg! Link here:
Are you an organization located within central Appalachia interested in helping individuals and families learn how to grow as much of their own food as possible? Our Garden Grants are now open and we are accepting draft proposals until Sep 1st. Link in our bio for more info!
Did you know its National Farmers Market Week? According to the USDA, farmers who sell at #FarmersMarkets are more likely to stay in business than those that don’t. Get out this weekend and celebrate your local farmers. #FarmersMarketWeek @FMCorg
