The New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets has announced a funding opportunity through the FreshConnect CSA for SNAP Grant Program, aimed at supporting local farmers and increasing access to fresh, locally grown produce for SNAP participants across New York State. With a total of $250,000 available, applicants are required to request the full award of $50,000 to be considered. The program seeks to promote community engagement, bolster regional agriculture, and facilitate affordable access to weekly produce shares by subsidizing costs for SNAP recipients. Eligible applicants include not-for-profit organizations, Indian Tribal Organizations, public educational institutions, and local or municipal governments, all of which must be registered and prequalified in the Statewide Financial System prior to submitting their applications. The application process involves several key deadlines, including an informational webinar on June 18, 2024, questions submission deadline on June 21, 2024, and the final application due date on August 27, 2024, at 3:00 PM. Awards will be granted on a rolling basis until the funds are exhausted, with a lottery process in place if multiple eligible applications are received simultaneously. The contract period spans from June 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024, and the program emphasizes diversity and inclusion, with set-aside goals for minority-owned, women-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. All applications must be submitted through the designated online system, and questions regarding the RFA should be directed in writing to the specified contact.
