Drought Grant Website Launches

Drought Grant Website Launches

A coalition of agriculture associations and the Northern CA Water Association have launched the CA Drought Grant Website – a portal for information on the CA Small Ag Business Drought Relief Grant Program. 

The site https://www.agdroughtrelief.org provides key information about grant eligibility and the ability to sign up to receive instant program updates as it becomes available in the upcoming months. When applications are out, they can be accessed from the site as well. 

Applications for the CA Small Ag Business Drought Relief Grant Program are expected to be available in January 2023 and will require 2022 tax records. 

Thanks to our partners on this ongoing effort: Northern California Water Association, Agricultural Council of California, California Agricultural Aircraft Association, California Warehouse Association, California Tomato Growers Association, and Western Plant Health Association.
