2016 A Team Challenge is open for applications.

The A Team Challenge is an innovative project, designed to help enlightened agriculture projects set up as social enterprises, raise funds and engage with their local communities.

The A Team Challenge is looking for innovative food and farming initiatives for its 2016 programme. It offers a combination of grant or loan funding up to £6,000 which must be matched by an equivalent amount raised through crowdfunding.

They are looking for projects that farm in a way that nurtures and protects the environment ie. farm agro-ecologically, create local supply chains, increase employment and community engagement and revive local economies.

Applications are open until 9th May 2016 with the winners announced by 30th June 2016.
