The Wolfe’s Neck Center Northeast Farmers Fund is designed to support market access for regenerative products for farmers across the region.  

By catalyzing Northeast farmers’ access to market opportunities for regenerative products, the Northeast Farmers Fund will increase the economic viability of farms and preserve working lands while building resilience to climate impacts across the region. The program is funded collaboratively by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Advancing Market for Producers Program, supply chain actors, and philanthropic partners.

We will be opening applications from October 1-14, 2026.

Funding can support projects related to expanded regenerative production and market opportunities, including:

  • Equipment, infrastructure and tools to expand scale and diversity of products
  • Certification and verification
  • Post-harvest handling and value-added processing
  • Marketing, branding, packaging and distribution improvements that help farms access new or higher-value markets

The Northeast Farmers Fund is particularly focused on supporting small- and mid-sized farms that are implementing or transitioning toward regenerative or sustainable production.
