Funding
Your Healthy Food Project with USDA Resources
Thursday, January 22, 2015
2pm EST/ 11am PST
As a nation, we must foster a food system that ensures urban and rural communities have access to fresh and healthy foods; small and mid-size farmers can produce and market food in an economically and sustainable
manner; and consumers have the resources they need to live healthy and productive lives.
This webinar will introduce the audience to several programs at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and provide examples of how USDA funding is being tapped to improve access to healthy foods and support local food system development in low-income
urban communities.
