About The Grant

The Healthy Food Financing Fund (HFFF) is designed to support food and agricultural enterprises in New Mexico that grow, raise, process, distribute, and sell local, fresh, and healthy food. The program focuses on expanding retail and institutional market channels, particularly in rural and underserved communities. With a total of $250,000 available for FY25, the grant provides upfront funding with no matching requirement, making it an accessible opportunity for a wide range of eligible entities.

Priority is given to projects that increase access to healthy food in historically under-resourced communities, support workforce development, strengthen market access for small and mid-scale food operations, and promote regenerative agricultural practices. Eligible entities include for-profit businesses, nonprofit organizations, cooperatively owned businesses, political subdivisions, and small farmers or ranchers with annual incomes under $250,000. Applications for the FY25 grant cycle open on October 16, 2024, and close on November 13, 2024, at 11:59 PM MST.
