Project Overview
More North Texas Farm Success built on the existing Farm Success educational programming and provided expanded opportunities for beginning farmers and ranchers and continued building community and providing practical education for beginning farmers and ranchers in the greater North Texas area. The project continues to fill a void in training, particularly practical education, for beginning farmers and ranchers in the North Texas area. Through in-person and virtual workshops, farm tours, networking opportunities, and 1-to-1 technical assistance, More Farm Success provided a place for new and beginning farmers and ranchers to gain knowledge, find resources, and connect with a network of other producers in the area.
The area targeted for this project includes a section of Texas in an approximate 100-120 mile radius from the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) metropolitan area and served 52 unique farmers and ranchers. The project leveraged local expertise as well as resources at FarmAnswer.org and other sources. The project also provided Farmer Networking groups to build the community of practice as well as 1-to-1 technical assistance so as provide more specific guidance on farm planning and development.
