Grant Opportunity: Fund a Farmer Grants – Food Animal Concerns Trust (FACT)
Capital Assistance for Local Farmers
Website
Eligibility: FACT encourages projects from pasture-based farms interested in the adoption of alternative breeds or developing co-operatives with other pasture-based farmers and confinement operations looking to convert to pasture-based systems.
Region: Nation wide
Notes: Fund-a-Farmer grants are very competitive, as such, each farm or individual can only be awarded a grant once every 2 years. This means if you received a grant in 2025 you’ll need to sit this year out, you are, however, eligible to apply for a Systems & Innovation Grant if your project fulfills the criteria.
This grant will begin accepting applications for our 2027 Grants in November 2026.
FACT has two different Fund-a-Farmer grant opportunities this season:
- Fund-a-Farmer Welfare Improvement Grants up to $3,500 each
- One Fund-a-Farmer Systems Change and Innovation Grant for up to $10,000.
You can apply for either grant or both. If you are luckily enough to be awarded both grants you will only receive funding for one.
