Child Nutrition Program (CNP) sponsors may request up to $10,000 to support Farm to Plate initiatives that will increase the local foods served as part of Child Nutrition Program snacks and meals.
Subgrants will be utilized by CNP operators to advance eligible local foods programming activities including gardening, chicken houses, raising livestock, garden towers, and more. Two funding tracks will be available: 1) up to $2,500 subgrant available for expansion of current farm to CNP projects, and 2) up to $10,000 for new projects implementing farm to CNP programming. Subgrants will be available to School Nutrition Program (SNP), Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP), and Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) sponsors, with funding priority given to those with 40% or more of program participants eligible for free or reduced priced meals.
The application is available by going to https://cnw.ksde.org, then Farm to Plate, then What’s New.
