The Fresh Market SAE Grant Available

For over thirty years, The Fresh Market has brought the freshest, most delicious quality products from around the corner and around the globe. What started in Greensboro, North Carolina as a dream has grown into a refreshing reality with over 100 stores in over 20 states across the nation. Each one a part of the local community. Each one dedicated to providing the freshest and best local ingredients.  Fresh Market now wishes to partner with you, the students in FFA, who are dedicated to becoming the next producers.

Students enrolled in agricultural education and that are FFA members that live within 90 miles of a Fresh Market location may apply for a $500 grant to begin, enhance, or grow their supervised agricultural experience program.  Priority will be given to those students whose project produces organic produce.  Selected students will be partnered with a Fresh Market location (2014 pilot location is Chapel Hill only) to market and sell their product.

Please return completed applications to the state office no later than 5pm January 5th.
