The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Office of Advocacy and Outreach has awarded a $750,000 Project Grant under the Outreach and Assistance for Socially Disadvantaged and Veteran Farmers and Ranchers (CFDA 10.443) program to the California Association of Resource Conservation Districts (CARCD) to provide technical assistance to Latino, Asian, and Tribal farmers in California. The grant funding will support CARCD's efforts to deliver personalized business advising, land access and lease negotiation assistance, market connections, access to capital, resource conservation education, and guidance on USDA program participation for these underserved farmer groups. The 3-year project period runs from Sep 29, 2023 to Sep 28, 2026. CARCD, a non-profit organization, will leverage its network of local Resource Conservation Districts to implement the grant activities and reach the target farmer populations across California.
