Sacramento Edible Food Recovery Funding Opportunities

To catch upcoming grants, some strategies are to follow CalRecycle, specifically their Funding – Food Waste / Edible Food Recovery page. They post Notices of Funds Available when grant cycles open.

Additionally, monitor CDFA’s Farm to Fork program and other CDFA programs, as these grants often re-open or have new rounds of funding available. Watch grant portals, such as Capital Food Access Alliance, California Grants Portal, State and County grant bulletins, or other NGO grant databases (FundsforNGOs, Foundation Center), and network with food recovery nonprofits and coalitions.
