Farm on Tap is our new “what if we just tried it?” experiment — a one‑night micro‑grant event where local farms pitch a small project they’ve been itching to do, whether it boosts their bottom line or simply makes farm life a little less chaotic. You come hang out at a brewery, hear the pitches, and vote. Ticket sales and donations from the night get handed over as a cash micro‑grant to the winning farm. It’s community support, but make it fun.

What Kinds of Projects Fit Farm on Tap?
Farm on Tap is designed for small, high‑impact projects that help your farm run better, grow more, or connect more deeply with your community. If you’re growing food, raising animals, or making farm‑based products, you’re exactly who this is for.
Projects can include anything that:
Extends your season — cold frames, hoop house repairs, row covers, heat mats
Increases production — irrigation fixes, tool upgrades, workflow improvements
Makes your day‑to‑day easier — wash/pack upgrades, fencing repairs, storage solutions
Starts a new program — youth education, community partnerships, tasting events
Improves customer experience — CSA pickup upgrades, signage, shade structures
Updates branding + marketing — new signage, photography, packaging, market displays
Supports animals — coop improvements, pasture fencing, shelter upgrades
Builds environmental impact — pollinator habitat, soil health testing, native plantings
This list is just a starting point — not the full menu. Use your imagination. You know your farm better than anyone, and you know exactly which project would make the biggest difference for your business.
