Berkshire Agricultural Gives $10,000 Grant To Greenagers

The grant will both support Greenagers' second year of apprenticeships ($2,800) at their farm at April Hill Conservation and Conservation Center as well as offset the cost of a pilot year of Greenagers Helping Farm Hands project ($7,200).

"We are happy to be supporting Greenagers training the next generation of farmers through their apprenticeship at April Hil. We also see a big win/win getting young adults working for Greenagers exposed to a variety of farms through the Helping Hands Program, all while giving the farmers the extra hands needed for big projects," Dan Carr, outreach and technical assistance coordinator at BAV said.

This is such a worthwhile program. Beginning April 1, 2021 Greenagers will offer a 3-person farm crew for hire to local farms. The total cost to farms is $260/day. (The total, unsubsidized cost per day is $517.26.)
This project is made possible by a grant from Berkshire Agricultural Ventures (BAV) - covering 35% of the cost - and private donors.
The crew will comprise one farmer (minimum 3 years experience) and two helpers with farm or conservation on work experience.
At least two crew members will be able to run motorized tools and machinery.
