Establishes Food Recovery Infrastructure Grant Program in Department of Agriculture; makes appropriation.
This bill (A4067) creates a state grant program within New Jersey's Department of Agriculture to support food recovery organizations, such as food banks, pantries, and soup kitchens. It provides grants of up to $50,000 per organization to purchase essential equipment like commercial refrigerators, freezers, delivery trucks, and storage units, as well as cover up to 10% of operational costs like staff salaries and administrative expenses. The program prioritizes using federal or non-state funds before state money and requires organizations to apply through a department-developed process. This directly helps nonprofits that redistribute surplus food to people facing food insecurity.
