CDBG-CV Food Insecurity Program

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts directed COVID-19 resources to address food insecurity throughout the state. Funds supported locally-grown foods in low-and-moderate income communities. In addition to this direct benefit, grants fostered student engagement, community collaboration, and education. An anticipated two to four tons worth of crop yield annually will be donated and sold to community nonprofits, and 170 youth and adult learners will be educated annually. Revenue earned from excess crop sales is utilized to sustain the program.
