Culturally-appropriate food-related Community Economic Development (CED) and Cultural Reclamation is the focus of this collaborative. As a collaborative, we value shared-learning, reciprocity, respect and working with communities in a slow and committed way. Communities who are successful in applying for grants will also have the opportunity to take part in networking and shared-learning opportunities to help projects grow and inspire other communities.
