About the company
Council On The Environment Inc., doing business as Council On The Environment Of New York City (GrowNYC), is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in New York that receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient for farm-to-school programs, local food systems development, agricultural outreach, and regional food access initiatives — work concentrated under the U.S. Department of Agriculture and performed entirely through federal grants rather than federal contracts.
GrowNYC operates as a prime grant recipient on 29 of its 30 federal awards (97%), with a single sub-grant award. The organization's customer base is heavily concentrated within USDA, with the top five USDA sub-agencies accounting for 70% of recent grants by count: the Agricultural Marketing Service (9 awards), the Risk Management Agency (6 awards), the National Resources Conservation Service (2 awards), the Food and Nutrition Service (2 awards), and the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (2 awards). GrowNYC has worked with 14 distinct federal agencies across its award history, though USDA dominates both program participation and dollar volume. The combined potential value across all 30 federal awards totals $12.8 million obligated.
Representative grant work includes a $488,759 Farm to School Grant from USDA's Food and Nutrition Service (Child Nutrition Division) awarded May 1, 2026, with completion by June 30, 2028, to implement farm-to-school initiatives in New York City focused on local food procurement, school gardens, agricultural education, and training for food producers on procurement regulations and food safety. GrowNYC also received a $338,248 Cooperative Agreement from the Natural Resources Conservation Service (CFDA 10.902, Soil and Water Conservation) beginning January 1, 2024 and ending December 1, 2026, to conduct outreach to historically underserved and Spanish-speaking producers about NRCS conservation programs. An earlier $860,293 three-year Project Grant from USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service (September 30, 2021 through September 29, 2024) supported regional farm viability and equitable access to locally grown foods through development of New York City's wholesale marketplace for local products. As a sub-grantee, GrowNYC participated in a May 1, 2023 New York Foods Project grant from New York State Agriculture & Markets that provided distribution services, logistics, marketing, and business support to socially disadvantaged farmers and producers across New York State, with GrowNYC generating over $4.7 million in farmer income and distributing 3.8 million pounds of regionally sourced food to New York City food-access partners in fiscal 2022.
Activity has been sparse and irregular — two awards in 2020 and 2021, one in 2023, three in 2024, and one in 2026 — with only two awards facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. GrowNYC's federal footprint is nonprofit grant-focused, with no federal contracts, no contract vehicles, and no subcontracting relationships on federal contracts.
