Fischer Farms was awarded a Climate Smart Commodities grant by the USDA in 2022 for a joint intensive research and development project to run from 2023-2028. Building on our previous two decades of work building a regional meat system, this efficient system includes quality production, made-to-order processing and order fulfillment, marketing, sales, and distribution. This pilot project is intended to be a model for other regional meat systems. All project funds are matched by Fischer Farms.
(All project expenditures are audited annually by a third-party accounting firm. No payments are made from the USDA until expenses are incurred by Fischer Farms and a detailed quarterly report is approved. The USDA Climate Smart Commodities grant does not fund any buildings, equipment, livestock, or land. Fischer Farms pays for all necessary capital improvements along with matching funds for the grant term.)
We’re proud to partner with many prestigious organizations on this project:
