Download printer-friendly .pdf version of the RFP.
Proposal Submission Deadline: December 9, 2024
The Horticulture Section in the School of Integrative Plant Science at Cornell’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) requests proposals for innovative research, teaching and extension/outreach projects involving organics and sustainability in farm and food systems, and managed landscapes including gardens and green spaces. A gift from the Toward Sustainability Foundation (TSF) will provide support for successful proposals during 2025. Short proposals are requested with a 6-page maximum (single spaced including an itemized budget, extra pages are allowed for the literature cited section). We invite grant proposals from Cornell University faculty and associates as well as county and regional based Cornell Cooperative Extension educators. Cornell student-led proposals are welcome for state, national or international research, but a Cornell faculty member must indicate his or her commitment to help guide and serve as an advisor for the proposal.
Project proposals will be reviewed and considered for funding up to a maximum $11,000 level, but PIs are encouraged to leverage and combine TSF funds with other sources of financial support to foster more ambitious projects. The project term is Feb. 1, 2025, to Jan. 31, 2026. Multiyear projects may be eligible for continued TSF funding, but a renewal proposal and progress report will be required for each year of TSF support, and the entire cohort of proposals will be reviewed collectively each year, so there is no guarantee of continued funding for multi-year projects. Use of TSF grant funds is restricted to student or staff wages and salaries, materials and supplies, essential travel related directly to the project, and other essential expenses of the proposed activities (ex. space rental fees, lab analysis, stipends to participating farmers). Each funded project is required to contribute 1) a 20-minute oral presentation at an October 2025 review day and 2) a comprehensive final report including project outcomes and impacts due by March 31, 2026. Final project reports will be made available to stakeholders, and should include figures, tables, photographs, written in a style and form accessible to non-scientists.
Goals of the TSF Organics & Sustainability Grants Program for 2025:
- Develop, evaluate, strengthen, and disseminate knowledge about organic and sustainable farming (including plant- and animal-based production), food systems, gardening and landscapes.
- Encourage and support systems-level studies on environmental and economic impacts, climate change, social equality, and local or regional sustainability of agriculture and food systems.
- Improve and expand organic and sustainability systems knowledge and information through educator enrichment within the Cornell Cooperative Extension (CCE) and Master Gardener Volunteer and youth development networks, within Cornell’s teaching programs, and at farms or demonstration sites, agricultural and food processing facilities, schools, and public educational settings throughout New York State and the Northeast.
- Promote novel and transformative approaches for research, extension, and teaching programs that enhance integrated learning and the knowledge foundation for organic and sustainable farming, gardening, and landscaping.
Priorities for Funding in 2025:
- Projects that involve participatory research with stakeholders.
- Projects that address diversity and equity of food systems and sustainable landscapes.
- Projects that address climate smart practices in agri-food systems and managed landscapes.
- Projects that substantially involve undergraduate or graduate student researchers.
- Projects that substantially involve county or region based CCE educators.
- Projects that promote understanding of ecosystem services and environmental impacts of organic and alternative farms, gardens, natural areas, and managed landscapes.
- Projects that use novel approaches to address sustainable local food systems within a national or international context including urban agriculture.
- Projects that include clear outreach to translate findings to communities of practice.
Format for Proposals
6 pages maximum, plus literature cited.
- Project/Program Title: Brief, clear, specific description of the proposed work.
- Principal Investigators and Cooperators: Names, titles, contact addresses and email addresses for
- those who will lead and collaborate in the proposed work and their primary roles.

- Intended Outcomes and Impacts: Describe expected outcomes and ways in which your project could enhance knowledge or improve energy efficiency, environmental or economic impacts, and other important attributes in sustainability of agrifood systems and managed landscapes.
- Budget: Funding is allowed for direct costs and staff or student labor. Budgets must itemize Direct Costs including wages and fringe benefits (the Cornell fringe rate for staff is Contract College (71.25%) and Endowed (35%), 0% fringe for students; if off-campus use your organization’s own justifiable fringe rate), materials and supplies, analytical costs, and essential travel, etc. For undergraduate or graduate student salary, fringe should not be requested. Total funding requests are limited to $11,000 per year including indirect costs of 10% (Cornell’s indirect) on the total of all direct costs. County/regional CCE requests can add their own justifiable indirect before the 10% Cornell indirect. Project funds remaining unspent on Feb. 1, 2025 will be reclaimed for use by other TSF projects in future years.
