GROW is committed to helping low income people to garden and provides gardeners with financial support (i.e., paying P-Patch plot fees and providing seeds and tools for shared use). GROW encourages gardeners to grow food for the hungry, either by contributing some of their own organic produce or by helping with the P-Patch garden plots designated for growing food and feeding programs. GROW is a member of Food Resource Network Federation (FRNF). FRNF was formed by area food providers seeking to move beyond the band-aid response to people trying to meet to meet their food needs. GROW's education mission is carried out through publication of the P-Patch Post, a newsletter that provides seasonal gardening tips, recipes and stories about inspirational gardeners. | Desc |

| Explanation | GROW executes a fiscal sponsorship grant agreement with select projects. Donations earmarked for a project operating under GROW's sponsorship are actually given to the GROW. GROW then places the donations in a fund dedicated to the project. Governed by the fiscal sponsorship grant agreement, GROW uses the fund to disburse grants to the project. The project provides regular reports to document its activities and expenditures. Legally, the project is a separate entity from GROW. The project owns its own work product, and intellectual and tangible property. It hires and supervises its own staff, and is responsible for direct financial management. GROW assumes liability to the funding source (typically executing a grant agreement with the funder) that the work will be substantially carried out as described in the grant application. | ExplanationTxt |
