Farmers Market Grant Program
The Upper Willamette Soil and Water Conservation District’s (UWSWCD) Farmers Market Grant Program awards grants up to $8,000 per market location for projects and events that promote conservation and support local food systems through community farmers markets in central and eastern Lane County. Successful project applications will encourage community and vendor participation in market events, educate the public on conservation or agricultural topics, and/or make local agricultural products accessible to diverse demographics.
