There is still time to apply to the Beginning Farmer Institute from the National Farmers Union. The registration deadline has been extended to July 15, 2025. The Institute is a free, ten-week farm business management program. It’s a comprehensive course designed to strengthen the long-term success and resilience of farms and ranches across the country. From October through December, participants will have weekly online trainings led by farm business management experts and engage in peer-to-peer learning. Participants who complete all the necessary course requirements will be considered for an additional in-person session the following spring, which will include additional trainings, farm tours, and networking opportunities with the National Farmers Union’s leadership team. The Beginning Farmer Institute is open to any U.S. producer over 18. Applicants must currently be farming or ranching at a for-profit operation. Operations of any size and type may apply.
