SCACED Rural Program Associate Ken Harvin sat down with Live 5 News’ Bouncing Around Charleston weekend segment to discuss the 2022 Community Garden Grants. In partnership with the South Carolina Office of Rural Health, we offered twenty (20) single grant awards in the amount of $3,000.00 for the establishment and expansion of community gardens in low-income, rural communities.
The Community Garden grants will offer training and technical assistance paired with funding to support minority and veteran producers in furthering the production of fruits and vegetables as an important source of fresh food and nutrition to communities lacking access to locally grown produce
