To this end, this project will develop a “Holistic Agritourism Training Toolbox”, provide ATSPs professional development, and provide mentoring, community ‘clustering’ partnerships, and networking opportunities to support these ATSPs who collectively serve 100+ agritourism operators.
This project will also support the strengthening and expansion of the newly formed WV Agritourism Association as a way to grow networking and partnerships within the WV agritourism ecosystem.
Our efforts will help WV agritourism operators improve the viability and sustainability of their operations, and the development of the local agritourism sector through comprehensively addressing the following crucial interlinked issues - strengthening rural agribusiness productivity and creativity, building agribusiness and tourism entrepreneurial partnerships, promoting sustainable agriculture and tourism, and encouraging agribusiness and rural community.
Performance targets from proposal: At the end of this project, 25 agricultural (agritourism) service providers (ATSPs) will gain practical knowledge and skills needed to design, develop and deliver agritourism training programs for their producers that are starting, expanding or modifying their agritourism operations.
Ten (10) of these ATSPs will implement one (1) training event each, reaching at least eight (8) producers each (80 total producers reached). Ten (10) of these agricultural service providers will use this information, and work together to design, develop and deliver four (4) "regional agritourism clusters/trails" throughout WV, involving at least ten (10) producers per cluster/trail (40 total farms).
Forty (40) producers managing about 400 acres will adopt at least four (4) recommended actions in agritourism whole-farm planning and risk management, and report improvements to their new, expanded or modified agritourism operations. Examples of improvements include increased revenue from admission fees or sale of value-added products; improved cash flow; increased visitors; or new partnerships formed because of joining clusters/trails.

Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Education & Human Resources (IUSE: EHR) Program is sponsored by National Science Foundation (NSF). This program promotes novel, creative, and transformative approaches to generating and using new knowledge about STEM teaching and learning to improve STEM education for undergraduate students. It supports projects that bring recent advances in STEM knowledge into undergraduate education, adapt, improve, and incorporate evidence-based practices, and lay the groundwork for institutional improvement in STEM education. Professional development for instructors to ensure adoption of new and effective pedagogical techniques is a potential topic of interest.
The National Leadership Grants for Libraries Program (NLG-L) supports projects that address critical needs of the library and archives fields and have the potential to advance practice and strengthen library and archival services for the American public. Successful proposals will generate results such as new models, tools, research findings, services, practices, and/or alliances that can be widely used, adapted, scaled, or replicated to extend and leverage the benefits of federal investment. Applications to IMLS should both advance knowledge and understanding and ensure that the federal investment made generates benefits to society. Specifically, the goals for this program are to generate projects of far-reaching impact that: • Build the workforce and institutional capacity for managing the national information infrastructure and serving the information and education needs of the public. • Build the capacity of libraries and archives to lead and contribute to efforts that improve community well-being and strengthen civic engagement. • Improve the ability of libraries and archives to provide broad access to and use of information and collections with emphasis on collaboration to avoid duplication and maximize reach. • Strengthen the ability of libraries to provide services to affected communities in the event of an emergency or disaster. • Strengthen the ability of libraries, archives, and museums to work collaboratively for the benefit of the communities they serve. Throughout its work, IMLS places importance on diversity, equity, and inclusion. This may be reflected in an IMLS-funded project in a wide range of ways, including efforts to serve individuals of diverse geographic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds; individuals with disabilities; individuals with limited functional literacy or information skills; individuals having difficulty using a library or museum; and underserved urban and rural communities, including children from families with incomes below the poverty line.
