    Thank you for sharing this opportunity, Michelle.

     Supporting the next generation of Black and Hispanic farmers is incredibly important, and programs like this help open real pathways into agriculture. The focus on both education and continuing family farm traditions makes it especially meaningful. I hope educators and students in our network can still take advantage of this and help spread the word to anyone who might benefit. I plan check your website out.  Are there any opportunities available at this time?

    Thank you.
