During the recently adjourned session of the Minnesota Legislature, the Land Stewardship Project and its allies won record funding for public programs that support farmers, conservation, and community food systems, among other things. We are now pivoting to the implementation stage to ensure these dollars and programs serve our members, as well as other small- and mid-sized farmers and processors, farmworkers, processing workers, food businesses, farmers’ markets, and local governments, as best as possible. Below is a listing of funding opportunities that are currently available, along with details on applying. To download a pdf copy of these resources, click here.

The Good Acre’s Local Emergency Assistance Farmer Fund (LEAFF) Program 

The LEAFF Program purchases fresh and culturally relevant produce from small-scale emerging farmers within 200 miles of the Twin Cities looking to expand into wholesale markets. LEAFF is not a grant, but a guarantee to buy a specific dollar amount of produce from each accepted farm during the farm season, dependent on funding. The Good Acre then redistributes purchased produce by donating to food shelves and other hunger relief organizations striving to offer fresh and culturally relevant produce to their communities. Efforts focus on areas where healthy foods have been inaccessible and neighborhoods with a higher density of Black and Indigenous residents and residents of color. This growing season, The Good Acre was able to approve 78 farms with a guarantee of purchasing $5,000 of produce per farm. 

• Application Period: The next application period is expected to be in Spring 2024.
