Grant Overview

Oregon's urban farming initiatives face significant rural-urban challenges, with over 80% of the state's population living in urban areas with limited access to fresh produce. The state's urban counties, such as Multnomah and Washington, have seen a 50% increase in demand for community gardens and urban farming initiatives over the past decade. Nonprofit organizations and community groups are among those leading the effort to create community gardens and promote urban agriculture. This funding opportunity prioritizes projects that demonstrate a clear understanding of the state's urban farming priorities and a commitment to community development. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations, community groups, and local governments. Oregon's Department of Agriculture has developed specific guidelines for urban farming initiatives, which applicants must follow. ## Oregon's Urban Farming Landscape ## Urban Farming Requirements in Oregon ## Supporting Urban Agriculture in Oregon Oregon's urban areas face unique challenges in accessing fresh produce, with many communities lacking grocery stores and other sources of healthy food.
