That's why we offer a special loan and financial services program to young farmers (under 35 years old) and beginning and small farmers (with less than 10 years of farming experience). We are interested in talking to farmers with a:

• solid business plan
• likely potential for success
• willingness to work hard

• FSA guaranteed loans
• Loan closings
