Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production Grants
Grants are divided into two categories:
Planning projects initiate or expand efforts of farmers, gardeners, citizens, government officials, schools, and other stakeholders in urban areas and suburbs. Projects may target areas of food access; education; business and start-up costs for new farmers; and development of policies related to zoning and other needs of urban production.
Implementation Projects accelerate existing and emerging models of urban, indoor, and other agricultural practices that serve multiple farmers. Projects will improve local food access and collaborate with partner organizations and may support infrastructure needs; emerging technologies; educational endeavors; and urban farming policy implementation.Webinar for 2025 Grant ApplicantsFY 2025 UAIP Competitive Grants Program FAQs (PDF, 348 KB)Learn more about Urban Farming Grants and Engagement OpportunitiesUSDA Partners with Association of Africans Living in Vermont | USDAJanuary 8, 2025 News Release: USDA Announces Grants and Technical Assistance Funding for Urban Agriculture and Innovative ProductionJuly 18, 2023 News Release: USDA Invests $7.4 Million in 25 Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production EffortsJanuary 30, 2023 News Release: Urban Producers, Public Invited to Attend February Meeting of Federal Advisory Committee for Urban Agriculture and Innovative ProductionOctober 26, 2022 News Release: USDA Invests $14.2 Million in 52 Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production EffortsJune 3, 2022 News Release: USDA Advances Food System Transformation with $43 Million for Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production, Adds New Urban County CommitteesOctober 5, 2021 News Release: USDA Announces Recipients of Urban Agriculture Grants and Cooperative AgreementsMay 17, 2021 News Release: USDA Announces Cooperative Agreements for Community Compost and Food Waste Reduction – 2021
