The American Community Gardening Association's next Teleconference Workshop will not be limited to just ACGA members.
The workshop will be about the USDA's Community Food Projects Grant program. Now into its eleventh year, this funding program will have three granting components: planning grants, training & technical assistance grants, and comprehensive community food project grants. As last year, grantees will be required to file a Letter of Intent (most likely in February.) For the first time, full proposals will be required to be submitted electronically through www.grants.gov <http://www.grants.gov/> . During the call, Zy Weinburg will cover what can and can not be funded and the various requirements of the three programs. Current and previous grantees will describe their experiences. Register today if you wish to participate in the 60-90-minute workshop conducted by toll-free telephone conference call, being held on Thursday, January 11, 2007 at 4 PM eastern, 3 PM central, 2 PM mountain, and 1 PM pacific. To register send an email to betsyjohnson at communitygarden.org and include a short description of your organization/garden.
