NRCS / EQIP funding

EQIP can help cover the cost of a high tunnel. We'll point you the right way.

USDA's EQIP program provides cost-share for eligible high tunnels. Rates and caps vary by state. We're not the policy experts (your local NRCS office is) but we know these structures, and we'll supply the spec sheets and documentation your application needs.

  • NRCS-eligible structuresDesigned to meet NRCS Conservation Practice Standard 325.
  • Spec sheets and documentationSpec sheets and vendor documentation for your EQIP application.
  • Help finding your state's programWe help you find your state's program and requirements.

CT Greenhouse is not affiliated with USDA. Program rules, cost-share rates, and deadlines are set by NRCS and vary by state. Always confirm with your local office.

State guides are on the way
