UC Berkeley students! BFI wants to support your food systems research or organizations. We have an annual budget to award grants to individual students conducting faculty supported research and to Registered Student Organizations that host events related to farm and food systems. Semester funding deadlines are approaching!

The Farm to School Incubator Grant Program is being evaluated by an independent team of researchers, including staff and affiliated faculty from the Berkeley Food Institute. The research team will provide a comprehensive analysis of the economic, environmental, and social impacts of the Farm to School Grant Program, culminating in a final report at the end of 2026.
