Grant,
I have some questions about the grant process. My local NRCS rep is not very helpful and I don't anticipate getting any grants through him. When you were looking for funding did you stay within your county / state agricultural organizations, or did you look at USDA grants? Also, when you went through the grant process with your NRCS rep, did they offer any input / advice for your plan, or were they pretty hands off? Finally, were there any post-project conditions of your grant (a write up or lessons learned to be shared with the local farming community)?
Thanks for your time,
Pete
