MDA Grants 101

Courtney VanderMey is the Farm and Business Development Coordinator with the Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) working primarily with farmer related grant opportunities. She manages the AGRI Livestock Investment Grant, Protecting Livestock Grant, and the Preparing for Extreme Weather grant. She hopes to help the industry by assisting producers, processors, and other agricultural businesses find opportunities to better their operations.

 

Courtney has gained knowledge of the livestock industry through work experience and her family’s small beef cattle operation. She will walk us through the MDA grant process from application all the way through to receiving the funding and beyond. Bring your questions regarding MDA grants and we'll cover as much as we can.
