Additional Funding Opportunities for Climate Mitigation and Adaptation:
The NH Community Loan Fund currently has low interest rates (3.25-4.5%) for farmers who are either currently implementing or planning to implement climate smart practices or energy solutions on their farm. These interest rates can also be used for bridge loans if needed for NRCS projects. The NH Community Loan Fund can also offer this rate to minority-owned farmers who are seeking micro-loans ($2,000-10,000) for equipment and marketing. Learn more here!
