Funding amount will vary by site. To determine the amount your site is eligible to receive if selected, multiply .25 by the number of meals to be served between October 1, 2022 and June 30, 2023 that will include a Pennsylvania-grown fruit or vegetable. Grantees will provide information and documentation regarding their purchases of Pennsylvania-grown fruits and vegetables and will receive funding from The Food Trust on a monthly basis. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis through September, with priority given to applications submitted by September 15.
