About the company
Small Places, doing business as Finca Tres Robles, is a Houston-based nonprofit organization that receives federal grant funding to support urban agriculture, farmer training, and food-system development in underserved communities, operating as a grant recipient rather than a federal contractor.
The organization has received two prime federal grants totaling $553 thousand across the past three years. The National Resources Conservation Service awarded a $295,522 Project Grant under the Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production program (CFDA 10.935) for PROJECT CAPTAN, running from April 2023 through July 2025. PROJECT CAPTAN increases food access, community-based agricultural production, and farmer training in Houston's East End by establishing community gardens and farms and providing technical assistance and skills development to aspiring farmers in urban agriculture practices. The Agricultural Marketing Service provided a separate Project Grant in January 2022 for COVID-19 pandemic relief covering workplace safety retrofitting, market pivots, transportation, worker housing, and medical expenses for food processors, distributors, farmers markets, and producers; that award completed in January 2023. Small Places also serves as a sub-recipient under The Reinvestment Fund, Inc.'s HFFI Food Access and Retail Expansion (FARE) Fund award as of March 2026, which offers loans, grants, and technical assistance for food-access projects and retail expansion in underserved areas.
Customer exposure is confined to three distinct USDA agencies (National Resources Conservation Service, Agricultural Marketing Service, and Rural Housing Service Washington Office Rural Business Cooperative Services), each accounting for single awards. The organization does not sit on federal contract vehicles, IDIQs, or GWACs. Grant work is geographically centered on Houston, Texas and serves direct community-development missions rather than federal operational support.
