RFP for Farm Fresh Coupon Program!

Hey FSC members- this could be a great project for Lowell, any interest in submitting an RFP?

Dear friends,

The Food Project is excited to have released a Request for Proposals
for Boston organizations to partner with us on our Farm Fresh Coupon
Program in the summer of 2011!

The RFP can be downloaded from our website at:
http://thefoodproject.org/blog/2011/4/28/farm-fresh-coupon-rfp

We are seeking partner agencies to work with us on this program,
distributing farmers’ market coupons as a component of a holistic,
multifaceted strategy to improve community health and nutrition. The
Farm Fresh Coupon Program seeks to partner with existing efforts to
increase the health of individuals in underserved Boston communities
and the viability of local farmers’ markets. We will do this by
providing coupons for participants of programs that encourage
increased consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables. By mutually
reinforcing the message that fresh produce is important, accessible
and affordable, we hope to have a lasting impact on participants’
shopping and eating habits.

We request your responses no later than 5:00 PM on Friday, May 20th,
2011. Please feel free to
share this RFP with your peers and colleagues. If you have any
questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Again, the full RFP
can be downloaded in PDF format via our website at
