Grant Overview

Delaware's urban areas face significant challenges related to food deserts, with over 40% of the state's urban population living in areas with limited access to fresh produce. The state's small size and dense urban centers like Wilmington create a unique environment for community-based initiatives. Unlike Pennsylvania, Delaware's community garden network focuses on readiness and sustainability from the outset. Delaware's Urban Food Deserts

The lack of access to healthy food options is compounded by socioeconomic factors, with lower-income neighborhoods disproportionately affected. For instance, zip codes in Wilmington have some of the highest rates of food insecurity in the state. Readiness Requirements for Delaware's Community Garden Network

Applicants must demonstrate readiness to establish and maintain community gardens, including plans for long-term sustainability and community engagement. The state prioritizes proposals that include educational components on nutrition and sustainable farming practices. Who Should Apply in Delaware

Eligible applicants include community groups, non-profits, and local government entities with experience in or a willingness to develop community gardening initiatives. Successful applicants will show a clear understanding of Delaware's urban food landscape and a commitment to addressing the nutritional needs of underserved populations. Delaware's Community Garden Initiative: A Path to Healthier Communities

By supporting the development of local gardens and related educational programs, Delaware aims to enhance food security and promote healthier lifestyles among its urban residents.
