Sustainable Agriculture Small Grants

Council's Sustainable Agriculture Small Grants Program is available for local producers. Through the program, local landholders are supported to use land management practices that benefit the farm, community and the environment.

If you are a primary producer, market gardener or small lot farmer, a limited number of grants of up to $4,000 are available for eligible activities.

Applications for the 2025–2026 grant round are now open. Applications close on 31 July 2025.

After 31 July applications will continue to be accepted however they will be considered in the 2026–2027 grant round unless there is funding still available in the 2025–2026 round.

Grants are awarded on a competitive basis, and you are encouraged to contact the Program Leader Sustainable Agriculture on 02 6670 2400 before lodging your application to ensure it is an eligible activity and meets the objectives of the grant program.
