If this is something you are passionate about, perhaps a non-profit structure is something to look at. It may be easier to get grant funding than VC funding. Although not as sexy as YC, Fresno (CA's 5th largest city) does have some supporting infrastructure for tech like the Bitwise Hive and Fresno State.

Thanks, I will look into it. I was also thinking of looking into CDFA grants this winter during farm downtime. But many federal grants require university participation and I didn’t go to school in the US. This somewhat restricts how I can gain access many of these grants and opportunities even though I am a citizen. It’s just time consuming even though I am sure it’s possible.
