Grant Brainstorming and Collaboration
2024 Michigan Family Farms Conference, SARE track
Presented by Katie Brandt & Sarah Fronczak, MSU-SARE
Join this session to dream big & find partners to grow the sustainable, small-scale farms of tomorrow. We'll begin by brainstorming themes, such as 'beginning farmers' or 'cover crops'. After learning how SARE funds innovation by farmers, educators & researchers, you'll join a theme group to discuss proposal ideas. Each group will plan goals, activities, potential partners, grant type, and a budget for 1 idea, then share out. Some may even reconnect to submit their grant!
