Do you have interest in diversifying or expanding the types of products you produce on your farm or in your kitchen for direct-to-consumer sales? Do you currently vend at a farmers market or wish to in the future? If yes, then we have a mini-grant opportunity for you! The Ann Arbor Farmers Market, in collaboration with Slow Food Huron Valley and Michigan State University Extension have raised funds to help increase the diversity of products available at our regions' farmers markets.

Goal of this mini-grant: to support farmers market growers who wish to expand the diversity of their product offerings and/or add long-term value to their operation for increased farmers market sales.

These funds were raised at a farm to table event in September 2019 celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Ann Arbor Farmers Market. We raised over $6000 for this cause. We will consider requests up to $500. The first round of applications are due February 1st.
