About the event
Join us for our final cultivating farmers workshop of the season!
This session is designed to help farmers build confidence in navigating the grant-writing process from start to finish. Together, we’ll break down how to find the right funding opportunities, understand what funders are looking for, and craft compelling proposals that reflect your farm’s unique story and impact. We’ll also cover common pitfalls, budgeting basics, and tips for staying organized throughout the application process. Whether you’re applying for your first grant or looking to strengthen your approach, this session will provide practical tools and guidance to help you move from ideas to funded projects.

We reside, work, and cultivate food
on unceded Indigenous homelands.
We acknowledge and honor the descendants of the Tongva, Kizh, and Gabrieleño peoples as the traditional land caretakers of Tovaangar (the Los Angeles Basin and the Southern Channel Islands). We pay our respects to the Honuukvetam (Ancestors), ‘Ahiihirom (Elders) and ‘Eyoohiinkem (our relatives/relations) past, present and emerging.
As part of a greater foodshed, we would also like to pay respect to and honor the Chumash, Tataviam, Serrano, Kitanemuk, ʔíviĨuqaletem, Acjachemen, Payómkawichum, and any other tribal group possibly not mentioned. As a Food Policy Council for Los Angeles we recognize this land acknowledgment is limited and engagement is an ongoing process of learning and accountability.
