Project Goals and Objectives
Our Mission:
The Western North Carolina Agricultural Options Program builds
sustainable farming communities in our mountain region by providing
resources directly to farmers who are diversifying and expanding their
operations.
Goals and Objectives:
• Assist tobacco farmers & those in tobacco-dependent communities to build economically sustainable enterprises.
• Minimize financial risk in crop transition by providing financial incentive to farmers selected through a competitive application process.
• Provide production, marketing & business management assistance to WNC AgOptions recipients to further support their projects.
• Offer demonstration of farm viability to the agricultural community.
