About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA NIFA) awarded $744,000 on September 30, 2025, to Common Ground Collective (CGC) through the Community Food Projects Competitive Grants Program (CFDA 10.225). The grant supports a four-year initiative titled "Foster Farming: A Community Approach to Increase Food Security on Maui," operating through September 29, 2029, in Haiku-Pauwela, Hawaii. The project addresses food insecurity and nutrition access for low-income populations on Maui through community farming partnerships and interventions designed to strengthen local food systems.
Under the Community Food Projects program, CGC will develop concrete food system solutions that may include community agricultural production, food distribution networks, workforce development, and strategic planning to improve food security and promote nutrition security among vulnerable populations. The award requires the awardee to demonstrate organizational capacity, fiscal accountability, and a commitment to sustaining project outcomes beyond the federal funding period. As with all Community Food Projects awards, the recipient is expected to leverage additional non-federal cost-share resources and collaborate with local partners to achieve comprehensive, sustainable improvements to the community food system.
