This application for scholarship funds is for farmers, food businesses, nutrition educators, and extension educators interested in attending conferences, workshops, and trainings that will support business development in the seven western counties and on the Qualla Boundary. Please do not yet purchase your travel, lodging, or conference registration, as some scholarships may have to be paid directly to the provider.
We are excited to work with you and will be in touch soon with additional details! In the meantime, you can visit empoweringmtnfoodsystems.org for additional information.
