Grants & Advisory Disclaimer

Effective June 22, 2026

This page is maintained by Common Acres. The text below is a starting point — please have it reviewed by a licensed attorney before relying on it. It is not legal advice.

Common Acres helps farmers find and understand federal and state programs. To set expectations clearly:

Informational only — not a guarantee

The eligibility quiz, grant matches, and program write-ups on this Site are for general information only. They do not guarantee that you will qualify for, be awarded, or receive any grant, tax benefit, or other program. Eligibility, funding levels, and deadlines are set by the administering agency and can change without notice.

Not affiliated with any agency

Common Acres is an independent platform. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authorized to speak for the USDA, NRCS, FSA, SARE, the IRS, or any other federal, state, or local agency. Always verify program details with the official agency source before relying on them.

Information may be out of date

Programs change. We do our best to keep listings current, but the authoritative source is always the agency's own website, application portal, or local office. If a deadline, amount, or requirement matters for your decision, confirm it directly.

Consultations are general guidance

When you request a consultation with our advisory team, any response is general guidance based on the information you share. It is not legal advice, financial advice, tax advice, accounting advice, or a professional opinion. For decisions with significant legal or financial consequences, consult a licensed attorney, CPA, or financial professional.

You are responsible for your applications

You are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of any application you submit, for meeting deadlines, and for the decisions you make based on information from this Site or our consultations.

No liability for outcomes

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Common Acres assumes no liability for missed deadlines, denied applications, lost funding, financial loss, or other outcomes arising from your use of the Site, the eligibility quiz, the grants directory, or any advisory communication. See our Terms of Service for full disclaimers and limitation of liability.
