NORWICH – The Chenango County Agriculture Development Council (CCADC) recently approved a new Barn Revitalization Grant Program. This new program allocates $2,000 of program income from a previous grant cycle to help revitalize and refresh some of Chenango County’s barns that may need a “facelift.”

Chenango County farm and agricultural land owners are eligible to apply for up to $400 in grant funds which are to be used specifically for the purchase of paint and related supplies (paint brushes, rollers, and trays) to accomplish the project. Requests for funding should be matched with cash or in-kind contributions from the applicants. Labor costs for the project are not eligible expenses and will not be reimbursed.
