    Who They Fund

    About Carolina Farm Stewardship Association

    Carolina Farm Stewardship Association funds the infrastructure around local food access and organic transition, with the largest recent awards flowing through FarmsSHARE and LFPA food purchase partnerships. In the recent grant list, that shows up in recurring support for food distribution hubs and farmers’ market channels such as Freshlist LLC in Charlotte and Farmer Foodshare in Durham. The pattern is not limited to food access alone: the association also backs the systems that help producers move into organic production, including its Transition to Organic Partnership Program mentorship work in North Carolina and South Carolina. The foundation’s grantmaking is closely tied to practical farm and community operations. Recent awards support partner hubs purchasing locally grown food at fair market value, then moving that food to households in communities with high food insecurity. Other grants help organizations participate in food distribution programs, manage food purchases, and build capacity for advocacy tied to ARPA funding. Across the list, the association funds organizations that connect farmers, food hubs, churches, and community groups within North Carolina, while also extending selected work into South Carolina through its organic transition program.

    What Carolina Farm Stewardship Association Funds

    A major theme is food access through local purchasing. Carolina Farm Stewardship Association awarded $221,176 to Freshlist LLC in Charlotte and $212,268 to Toe River Aggregation Center Training Organization Regional Inc in Spruce Pine for LFPA food purchases, showing how it channels funds into local food distribution and procurement. The association also supports community-based food ministries. It gave $288,135 to Tall Grass Food Box the Abundance Foundation Inc in Pittsboro and $172,770 to Conetoe Family Life Center in Conetoe for participation in FarmsSHARE food distribution. Farmer support is another clear thread. Through the Transition to Organic Partnership Program, CFSA manages mentorship for producers transitioning to organic in North Carolina and South Carolina, pairing experienced organic growers with mentees. It also funded ARPA Advocacy Academy work alongside food-purchase support for Freshlist LLC in Charlotte.

    Typical grants fall in the mid-sized range: the 25th percentile is $15,754, the median is $45,892, and the 75th percentile is $89,145. The recent list also shows several awards above $200,000 and many in the $50,000 to $120,000 range. Funding appears recurring rather than one-off for some recipients; Freshlist LLC, Farmer Foodshare Inc, Working Landscapes, Feast Down East Inc, and Conetoe Family Life Center each appear in multiple recent grants across different years. The foundation does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. One active program, TOPP mentorship, accepts unsolicited participation.

    Where Carolina Farm Stewardship Association Makes Grants

    Giving is overwhelmingly concentrated in North Carolina: 98% of grants go to recipients in the HQ state, and the recipient-country distribution is entirely U.S.-based. Recent awards reach cities and towns across the state, including Charlotte, Durham, Warrenton, Burgaw, Conetoe, Burnsville, Oxford, Sylva, Enfield, Boone, and Pittsboro. Outside North Carolina, the recent list includes a grant to Center for Third World Organizing in Oakland, California, but no non-U.S. recipient countries appear in the data.
