Mini-Grant or Co-Sponshorship Funding

As funds are available, the Food Studies Program may be able to support events or projects closely tied to our mission. Small grants in the range of $100-$600 may be available for individuals associated with Virginia Tech seeking supplemental funding for speakers, films, workshops, or other projects related to Food Studies. For example, in the past, we have supported a “Cooking up Culture” class at Reynolds Homestead’s College for Older Adults, The Common Ingredient’s work on food insecurity in the New River Valley, VT’s Indigenous Community Garden, an Honors College seminar on the Chemistry of Cooking, the Love of Foraging zine, and provision of local foods from Glade Road Growing for a food lab. Some years, we will have limited funds; but when available, we accept applications for funding on a rolling basis, through this Google Form.
