This scholarship supports a NYS veteran’s attendance to agricultural trainings, workshops and/or conferences. This list is not all-inclusive.

If you find an agricultural event that supports your farm aspirations, you may apply for a veteran scholarship once you have registered for the event. You will need to upload your registration as part of the application process.

Scholarship applications will be reviewed and considered on an individual basis and will be dependent on available funding. Applicants may request reimbursement for registration fees, mileage costs, and in some cases lodging.  You will be notified via email within 5 working days whether your submission has been approved or denied.

Bailey joined the Small Farms Program in 2022 as a veterans project associate with Farm Ops. She has a fond appreciation for the sacrifices that our veterans, active-duty military members, and their families make for our country as many close to her have served. Her work supports veterans who wish to explore or further their agricultural ventures with educational resources, training, and opportunities to network with other farmer veterans. Her goal is that veterans ultimately find a renewed sense of purpose through agriculture in their communities.
