AI Contract Overview
The New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets is offering a grant program with a total funding pool of $2.5 million to support the growth and enhancement of community gardens, school gardens, and urban farms throughout the state. Grants range from a minimum of $25,000 up to a maximum of $50,000 per award, with the goal of fostering urban agriculture initiatives that promote food production, safety, and distribution, while also strengthening local food resilience. Projects should focus on activities such as food processing, waste reuse, rainwater collection, and community education, particularly in densely populated areas where urban farms and gardens can have a lasting impact. Eligible applicants include not-for-profit organizations, educational institutions, municipal governments, tribal organizations, and community groups working with fiscal sponsors. Past recipients are eligible to reapply, provided their previous projects are completed and contracts closed before the new grant cycle begins in January 2026. The application process includes an informational webinar scheduled for July 29, 2025, with questions due by August 20, 2025, and responses posted shortly thereafter. The deadline for submitting applications is September 5, 2025. The grant term spans from January 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027. There are no specific set-aside goals for minority, women, service-disabled veteran, or disadvantaged-owned businesses. Interested applicants can find further details and apply through the designated online portal or contact Kendall Hough, Supervisor of Food Systems and Resiliency, via email or phone for assistance.
