Lots of money with the NRCS available. Healthy soils grant was awesome for our needs. Cheers folks- love you passion for homesteading. From C38_Southwest
I am so glad that I found this video. Finally, a resource for the governmental programs available. So many questions so little space. I have applied for the EQUIP program hoping for a decision soon. I have pursed your site for information on my potential hoop house. Thank you for this information.
Glad it was helpful!
😂 it's so funny you said that @ 4:53 about injection molding- I've worked at an injection molding factory for the past 13 years. But I started a cutflower & vegetable farm 3 years ago & am really wanting a high tunnel to extend my season as well as because of all the rain we get that causes damage to fruit, veggies & flowers.
We have applied for this grant and keeping our fingers crossed we get it this year. We grow to sell and this would help our operation so much. Thank you for the helpful video and information.
Fingers crossed!
I'm going to apply. I hope I get it! I've purchased so Manu junk hoop houses that have just gotten all busted up in the wind... I'm only wanting something about 16'w x 40'
