Description

Approximately $13.5 million in competitive grant funds in fiscal year (FY) 2020 is available for award through the Local Food Promotion Program (LFPP). LFPP is a component of the Farmers Market and Local Food Promotion Program (FMLFPP), which is authorized by the 2018 Farm Bill under the Local Agriculture Marketing Program (LAMP). The goal of LFPP grants are to develop, coordinate and expand local and regional food business enterprises that engage as intermediaries in indirect producer to consumer marketing to help increase access to and availability of locally and regionally produced agricultural products. LFPP offers both Planning and Implementation projects. For LFPP Planning, the minimum award is 25,000 and a maximum of $100,000 for up to 18 months (1.5 years). Applicants are expected to begin on September 30, 2020 and be completed by March 31, 2022. For LFPP Implementation projects, the minimum award is $100,000 and a maximum of $500,000 for a period of 36 months (3 years). Applicants are expected to begin September 30, 2020 and be completed by September 29, 2023. Matching funds of 25% of the Total Federal portion of the grant is required.
