The PIE Food Project Grant program was created to encourage the development of projects that advance equity and access in local food systems across
Dane County. In 2025, $40,000 is available for PIE Food Project Grants.
Individuals and organizations with smaller projects are especially encouraged to apply. The application includes two funding categories: one for funding requests up to $2,000, and the other for requests up to $4,000.
Priority will be given to projects serving Dane County communities outside the City of Madison and those that impact vulnerable, underrepresented, and/or underserved communities in Madison.

Proposals should address one or more of the following
focus areas:
|
|
-
Increase access to healthy, local, culturally-relevant food
-
Strengthen regional agriculture and ease access to land for growing food
-
Decrease food waste and loss via recovery and redistribution of good quality rescued foods
-
Enhance community voice in local food system development
|
|
|
|
If your project only serves communities within the City of Madison, we encourage you to apply for a
City of Madison SEED Grant (due February 21, 2025). SEED applicants may also apply for a PIE grant. Funding can be received from both a SEED grant and a PIE grant, not to
exceed the total project budget needed.
