Breeze N Farms, LLC | Application Preview
Breeze N Farms, LLC is seeking government grants to fund significant renovations and repairs to its aging wooden barn and equipment. The current structure is deteriorating and leaking, and the owner aims to replace it with a more durable metal building. This upgrade would not only improve safety and reliability but also allow for the addition of more stalls, ultimately increasing revenue.
The business plan focuses on modifying the farm's layout, including barn and fencing enhancements, to facilitate more effective pasture rotations and provide shelter during inclement weather. Plans also include creating a covered riding arena to enhance the facility's offerings. The goal is to make the farm more efficient and capable of accommodating a greater number of animals.
The owner highlights a commitment to community and family values, emphasizing a friendly atmosphere and the experience gained from a lifetime of riding and training horses. In addition to traditional boarding and riding lessons, the farm aids in rehoming and rehabilitating animals in need, working closely with local rescue agencies.
Competition comes from larger facilities with better resources and convenience for potential clients. However, Breeze N Farms distinguishes itself through its unique community engagement and personal touch. As a single mother running the farm, the owner also promotes educational outreach through various local organizations. This includes selling hormone-free eggs and homemade goat milk products, further enhancing the farm's appeal. The owner possesses certifications in veterinary assistance and equine studies, adding credibility to her operations.

Funding Usage
The barn is very old and wooden. It is in major repairs at this point, and I would like to renovate it to be a sturdier metal structure. The current wooden one is in a deuteriation state as well as leaking. With a complete remodel to a sturdier and redesigned structure, I can add more stalls to increase profit as well as the maintenance on and building repairs. The metal has twice the durability as the wood. The working equipment we use every day is also in need of major repairs and/or replacements. A reliably working tractor and truck is a huge necessity. Minor repairs on the horse trailers could be done as well.
