Several organizations in Washington County will receive funding from the 2026 Pennsylvania Ag & Youth Grant Program, according to an announcement by Sen. Camera Bartolotta (R-46). The grants are provided through the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and are part of a statewide initiative established under the 2019 PA Farm Bill.
“These grants are an important investment in our youth and the future of agriculture in Washington County,” Bartolotta said. “By supporting hands-on learning, workforce training and innovative agricultural education programs, we are helping prepare students with the skills they need to succeed in a growing and essential industry.”
The program aims to support projects that focus on agricultural education, workforce development, and leadership opportunities for young people. Additional details about the grant program can be found on the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture’s website.
