Green Fair Project
Your Michigan soybean checkoff is helping county fairs go green. The Green Fair Project provides an opportunity for county fairs and farmers to work together to demonstrate the benefits of soy biodiesel and soy-based products such as cleaning supplies and building materials.
Through a competitive application process, the Michigan Soybean Checkoff will provide matching grant funds to agricultural fairs who use soybean products.
Funds are not to be used for lobbying purposes.
