NM Farmer Innovation Program – Farm to Table NM Farmer Innovation Program NM Farmer Innovation Program Farm to Table’s New Mexico Farmer Innovation Program (NMFIP) began in 2023 with funding from the USDA Urban Agriculture and Farmer Innovation Program. Its vision was to provide funding and support to farmers and agricultural producers in urban areas in order to improve access to healthy, local food.
Through this original component of the program, Farm to Table awarded urban micro-grants to 40 farms, ranches, and producers in 15 counties across New Mexico. The last Urban Micro-Grant cycle was awarded in Spring 2026. See descriptions of funded projects from 2024-2026.

This funding focuses on producers who are developing and implementing solutions for our changing climate and who are building out better food access for communities. Their projects advance regenerative agriculture and increase availability of locally grown, nutritious food in rural and Tribal communities. Seven micro-grants have been awarded to Rural/Tribal producers so far.
The program will open its second cycle on June 22, 2026 (see below).

We also recognize the importance of encouraging agricultural practices that are sustainable and which support the long-term health of the land and waters, and the biodiversity of plants and animals in the ecosystem. Through this approach to fresh, local food and sustainable practices we prioritize the health and economic well-being of communities in New Mexico.
