The University of Georgia received a $1.5 million grant from the United States Department of Agriculture to invest in agricultural innovation across Georgia. The grant will be distributed to community projects through the university’s Archway Partnership. The initiative will support agricultural producers and stakeholders with an emphasis on urban and suburban farming. These projects could include any aspect of agricultural innovation, from food access to startup costs for new farmers. The grant is a part of a larger framework from USDA announced in 2022 to transform food systems nationwide.
