About the company
The Food Trust, a Philadelphia-based nonprofit organization, acts as a prime recipient on federal grants focused on food access, nutrition education, and farmers market development, with secondary work as a sub-recipient on state and local health department grants. The organization does not hold federal prime contracts, but instead receives grants from the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Department of Health and Human Services to implement community food programs across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware.
The Food Trust's grant portfolio centers on three concrete capability areas. The first is nutrition incentive and produce prescription programming: a $482,999 two-year Project Grant from the Institute of Food Safety and Nutrition (CFDA 10.331) awarded September 2025 funds the Food Bucks Rx program, which connects healthcare providers and retail partners to increase fresh fruit and vegetable consumption among 1,000 participants experiencing diet-related diseases or nutrition insecurity across Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey. The second is specialty crop marketing and farmers market expansion: a $625,056 three-year Cooperative Agreement from the Agricultural Marketing Service (CFDA 10.175) awarded March 2026 supports marketing, research and development, and expansion of specialty crop availability; a prior award from the same agency (September 2022) funded a citywide Philadelphia farmers market promotional campaign and advisory group to expand farmer market access and sales opportunities. The third is food access and health equity in vulnerable populations: a Project Grant from the Institute of Food Safety and Nutrition (November 2022, completed April 2025) supported the Inside Out program, a two-year community food initiative targeting incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals in Central North Philadelphia.
Customer concentration sits with the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Marketing Service, which accounts for ten awards across the source data, followed by the National Institute of Food and Nutrition (six and four awards respectively) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (four awards). These top five customers represent 76% of all awards. The combined dollars obligated across 34 awards is $14.2 million, with recent annual activity averaging two to five awards per year. As a sub-recipient, The Food Trust delivers nutrition incentive and chronic disease prevention work under prime grants from the New Jersey Department of Health, the New Jersey Department of Human Services, and the County of Allegheny, with recent sub-awards spanning October 2022 through September 2026. Only one award faces completion inside the next twenty-four months, indicating limited immediate recompete pressure. The Food Trust's federal footprint reflects a three-decade organizational mission centered on increasing food availability and nutrition knowledge in underserved neighborhoods through direct service delivery rather than through federal contracting vehicles.
