This year, we awarded $40,000 to 9 recipients across Santa Barbara County, providing critical funding to students, local food producers, small businesses, and community organizations addressing food inequity. These grants helped recipients plan, grow, experiment, strengthen, and ultimately build a more resilient local food system.
This is just one example of what SBCFAN does to create a fairer, more sustainable food system. By closing gaps in resources and empowering communities, we’re making long-term impacts that benefit everyone in Santa Barbara County.
Your support makes a tangible difference for the people and communities who grow, distribute, and rely on local food. Thank you for standing with us in this important work.
The Santa Barbara County Food Action Network is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
