Central Appalachian Network (CAN) 2012 Small Grants Program is set to announce first round of grants to local food system projects.

CEO is a founding member of the Central Appalachian Network (CAN) - a collaborative of nonprofits working in the Appalachian regions of Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.  CAN's mission is to work with individuals, community leaders, businesses, policy makers, and others to develop new strategies that create wealth and reduce poverty while restoring and conserving the environment of our region.  

 

CAN's current collective focus is developing, strengthening, and connecting sustainable agriculture value chains at the local and regional levels. Through the small grants program, CAN will address identified gaps in sustainable agriculture value chains in Central Appalachia, build the capacity of our partners to plan and implement sustainable agriculture value chain development, and improve and expand the excellent work already underway in organizations across the region.

The first round of grants will be announced soon. Check back for details!
