The second round of grants through the Community Food Access program is now available for small food retailers and small family farmers. This opportunity allows these small food businesses to apply for up to $50,000 to expand opportunities for Coloradans living in low-income, low-access communities to purchase healthy groceries. This application round will close on March 11, 2024.
This webinar will provide more information and answer questions about how to apply for the Small Food Business Recovery and Resilience Grant.
