Join the UVM Extension Dairy Team and partners to learn about grants and funding opportunities available to Vermont dairy producers.

Explore funding opportunities, review the 2026–2027 funding schedule, and learn what types of projects are eligible for funding. Experts will share tips, strategies, and resources to help you navigate the grant application process, including how to craft your farm’s purpose statement and collect supporting data and documentation for your project. Connect with representatives from relevant funding organizations and get answers to your project-specific questions.
