Mission & Focus Areas

The foundation’s stated mission is to preserve sustainable agriculture, endangered breeds of historic farm animals, and the small farm. It also identifies young farmers, BIPOC farmers, U.S. military veterans who farm, and rural farmers who have been traditionally disadvantaged or excluded from mainstream farm bills and support systems as areas of concern. The foundation says it supports their 501(c)(3) advocates, as well as environmental groups addressing farm issues and promoting healthy food systems and sustainable communities.

Its 2024 grants include organizations whose own missions reflect some of these interests. For example, Rodale Institute says it advances regenerative organic agriculture through research, education, and outreach; the National Young Farmers Coalition says it works to equitably resource a new generation of working farmers; and Farmer Veteran Coalition says it develops viable employment and meaningful careers through collaboration between farming and military communities. Roadrunner Food Bank describes its mission as feeding people facing hunger and building partnerships toward self-sufficiency.

In 2024, the foundation made 25 grants totaling $587,500. Grants ranged from $2,500 to $50,000, with a median of $15,000.
