Overview
The Department invites eligible applicants to apply for funding through the SNAP-Ed Community Growers Grant Program.
Community-led growing spaces are collaborative projects on shared open space that produce healthy and affordable fresh fruits and vegetables for local community consumption. This funding aims to support garden-based nutrition education and food production in Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) eligible communities to increase the production and consumption of healthy and fresh food.
