There are many Florida small farmers who want to attend this year’s conference but cannot do so due to financial challenges.

There are more than 30 eligible applicants for farmer scholarships, but insufficient funds to support them. The number of scholarships that can be awarded will depend on the total amount of donations received.

Please consider donating so your fellow Florida small farmers may have the opportunity to attend this year’s conference and build upon their skills and experiences. Small farmers depend on each other to excel and keep the industry going.Eligible applicants may be starting a new farm, or they may have had a tough farming year due to weather and other conditions.

You can help a farmer get to the conference by donating at: http://www.conference.ifas.ufl.edu/smallfarms/donation.html
