The Community Food Projects (CFP) Competitive Grants Program?10 Years of Progress
From the Sonoran Desert in southern Arizona to the densely populated neighborhoods of East New York, Community Food Projects (CFP) grantees are reaching back into the past and ahead into the future to develop new ways to produce and distribute healthy food. On the Tohono O?odham Reservation, along the Mexico and Arizona border, tribal members are battling the devastating effects of a diabetes epidemic by restoring the cultivation of traditional drought-resistant crops. New farming operations devoted to traditional foods, such as tepary beans, are developing new jobs, increasing the tribe?s food security and self-sufficiency, and leading the way to healthier diets.
