If you have any questions or would like to share your thoughts to help guide the development of the program, please contact us.

We want to hear from you, especially if you are:

  • A new or beginning farmer who needs assistance.
  • An established or retiring farmer who wants to develop a succession plan.
  • A farmer interested in mentoring or making land available to a next generation farmer.
  • A farmer, agricultural service provider, or other party interested in sharing their experiences and providing feedback on the development of the program. You could complete a survey, attend a focus group, or call or email us to discuss your ideas.
  • A service provider or program looking to connect to, and be a part of, a collaborative network of agricultural organizations working to support next generation farmers in New Jersey.

Please contact us with any inquiries you may have regarding the Next Generation Farmer Program.
