Scholarships

We know conferences take time and money - that’s why Small Producers Initiative (SPI) and FARFA prioritize providing scholarships for attendees.

We welcome applicants from all Southern states and strongly encourage beginning and aspiring farmers, BIPOC producers, and veteran farmers and ranchers to apply.

If selected, you will register online and pay a reduced fee. Additionally, you may request a travel stipend to help cover mileage, lodging, or flights. Please note that travel stipends will be awarded after the conference and will require you to create an account with Texas State University.

Once scholarship applications become available, a link will be posted on this webpage, and an announcement will be sent via the SPI & FARFA newsletters. To subscribe to our newsletters, click the link in the footer.

For any questions, please reach out to smallproducers@txstate.edu.
