California Department of Food and Agriculture’s Office of Farm to Fork is accepting proposals for the California Nutrition Incentive Program. This program provides competitive grant funding to organizations to provide incentives to nutrition benefit shoppers, support program operations, and outreach that encourage the purchase and consumption of healthy, California-grown fresh fruits, vegetables, and nuts by nutrition benefit clients. The Office of Farm to Fork is seeking project proposals from qualified entities to distribute nutrition incentives at Certified Farmers’ Markets, Certified Mobile Farmers’ Markets, Community Supported Agriculture sites, farm stands, and small brick and mortar retailers throughout California. Incentives should be available to shoppers using CalFresh benefits to purchase California grown-fresh fruits and vegetables.
