GrowNYC Farm Beginnings is the Foundation's course for experienced farm workers to start their own businesses.

Our course admits ten (10) applicants and is held from January to March, virtually and in person. We focus on serving BIPOC, immigrants, and underrepresented communities in farm ownership.

About

GrowNYC Farm Beginnings is a high-participation foundation course for experienced farm workers to build their own farm businesses. Participants will apply their learnings through developing a farm business concept and will learn in community with peers and experienced farmer-owners. This program has provided training for many farm businesses that feed New York, and we are excited to welcome the next cohort.

Course Format

Our course includes ten class sessions that culminate in a business plan presentation at the graduation ceremony.

• Farm Beginnings (English) and La Nueva Siembra (Spanish) run concurrently, with ten (10) participants in each language group.
• In-person workshops integrate both groups for a bilingual learning experience (with interpretation).
• Virtual classes will be monolingual.
• We use a popular education approach for collective learning between participants and across languages.
