Q3 Consumer Engagement Grant Application Now Open

Applications for the IFB Consumer Engagement Grant are now being accepted for projects being planned for this spring (March 1 – June 15, 2023). County Farm Bureaus interested in hosting consumer engagement events during this period who have not already been awarded a grant for that project are invited to apply. County Farm Bureaus are eligible to receive grant funding for multiple consumer engagement projects per year.

More than $13,000 in grant funds have been awarded to County Farm Bureaus so far in FY23.

Matching grants of up to $1,000 per project are available. Consumer Engagement Grant applications will be accepted from January 15 through 11:59 pm Wednesday, February 15. Applicants will be notified of their funding status no later than February 28. County managers are encouraged to complete the application on behalf of their organization.

One more opportunity for grant funding remains in FY23 – applications will re-open in April for summer events.

For more information about the grant, FY23 grant application dates, event ideas, and to find the link to the application, please visit the Consumer Engagement Grant page on the Leaders’ Portal.
