Farm Again

 

AgStart

Do you live in Georgia? Do you have a disability or chronic health condition? Are you new to farming? Are you wanting to start a small scale farming enterprise? Are you ready to put in the hard work that owning your a business requires? If you answered yes to these questions, our Ag-Start project may be able to help you.

We accept three new farmers each calendar year into our incubator program. If you are selected, the Ag-Start project will provide the following:

  • Work with you as a team to design your agricultural operation. We will aide in conducting market research for your area to determine the best crops to grow.
  • We will identify training to prepare you in your new business venture. This will involve a variety of workshops and mentors hip opportunities.
  • We will aide in finding funding to start your new business enterprise.
  • We will involve a variety of students at the University of Georgia to aide with everything from market research to graphic design.

    Check out our new farmer resource page for some tips on starting your new business.
