The grants are available to support projects that enhance the competitiveness of specialty crops grown in Iowa. The final funding level for the program this year has not yet been finalized by the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service, which administers the program, but Iowa received $307,610 in funding in 2014 and it is anticipated the state will receive a similar level in 2015. “The Specialty Crop Block Grant funds can support food safety, research and marketing efforts that will encourage Iowans to choose the products that are produced right here in our state,” Northey said. “Specialty crops are a very important part of Iowa agriculture as they allow farmers to diversify and give customers access to locally grown products.” Grant funds shall be used for projects that solely enhance the competitiveness of specialty crops that benefit the specialty crop industry as a whole and will not be awarded for projects that directly benefit a particular product or provide a profit to a single organization, institution, or individual. Iowa agencies, universities, institutions, and producer, industry, and community based organizations are all eligible to apply for funding to enhance the competitiveness of specialty crops. In addition, single organizations, institutions, and individuals are encouraged to participate as project partners. Grant awards will be considered up to a maximum of $24,000 and projects can have a duration of up to 30 months (2 ½ years). “Specialty Crops” that are eligible under this program are fruits and vegetables, tree nuts, dried fruits and horticulture and nursery crops, including floriculture. Both fresh and processed specialty crops are eligible. Proposals must be received by IDALS on or before 4:00 p.m. on Friday, May 1, 2015. For more information visit the IDALS Spe- cialty Crop Block Grant program at the Department’s web site at www. IowaAgriculture.gov/Horticulture_ and_FarmersMarkets/specialtyCropGrant.asp. The Department is again establishing a Review Committee to help review, evaluate, and make recommendations on grant proposals submitted to the Department. Those interested in participating in the Review Committee should have knowledge of specialty crops, and/or grant writing or grant management experience, and the ability to devote the necessary time to complete the review process. Additional information about reviewer responsibilities, meeting dates and an application form can also be found at www.IowaAgriculture.gov/ Horticulture_and_FarmersMarkets/ specialtyCropGrant.asp. Applications to participate in the Reviewer Committee are due Friday, March 27, by 4 p.m. In addition, to ensure that funds are used in the most efficient manner possible, the Department is asking specialty crop stakeholders and organizations to submit public comments on program priorities. The comments will help the Department identify priorities; establish the criteria used to evaluate the projects proposed for funding, and to determine how the reviews are conducted. Iowans interested in submitting comments about the program can do so online by emailing [email protected] or by mail to Horticulture and Farmers Market Bureau, Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship, 502 East 9th, Des Moines, Iowa, 50319. Comments received by May 1, 2015 will be presented to the review committee to assist in prioritizing projects. “The Specialty Crop Block Grant program has been a tremendous benefit to Iowa and it is important we understand the priorities of the specialty crop producers as we consider this year’s applications,” Northey said. “The public comments will allow us to hear from all segments of Iowa’s specialty crop industries and give them a means to participate in the decisions surrounding this program.” 2015 HCCEF grant applications now available The Hardin County Community Endowment Foundation (HCCEF) announces that grant applications for the new grant cycle in 2015 year are now available. “Over $90,000 will be given out in grants to projects that enhance the quality of life for our citizens,” says Kendra Veld, HCCEF Grant Chair. Applications are available on the HCCEF website at www.donateio- wa.org/hardin and on the Hardin County Extension Service website at www.extension.iastate.edu/hardin/. Paper copies of the grant application are available at the Hardin County Extension Office in Iowa Falls, as well as at each city hall in Hardin County. Deadline for grant applications is 4 p.m. on Friday, February 6 with grant recipients being announced in early April. Non-profit agencies, schools, units of government, or other qualifying charitable organizations operating for the benefit of Hardin County may apply. Since 2005, HCCEF has awarded over $890,000 in grants from their Community Grant program and through grants from over 60 endowed family of funds with HCCEF. Grants support projects in six focus areas: Arts & Culture; Health Human Resources; Community Betterment; Recreation & Environment; Economic Development, Education; and Youth Development. Inquiries about the 2015 grant opportunities and other foundation information should be directed to Kendra Veld, Grant Chair, at 641868-2352 (e-mail: [email protected]) or Tam Elerding, HCCEF Program Director, at 641-373-1379 (e-mail: endowhardinco@gmail. com.)

The FAFSA is a standardized application used to determine eligibility for federal grants, loans and work-study funds from the federal government. In addition, many colleges and states, including Iowa, use FAFSA information when determining eligibility for institutional and state financial aid programs. Completing and filing the FAFSA is not as difficult as many people think. “We encourage students and parents to complete the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.gov rather than filing a paper form because the help features and built-in edits reduce applicant error,” explained Karen Misjak, executive director of the Iowa College Student Aid Commission (Iowa College Aid). “With all of the recent enhancements to the online form, it only takes about 30 minutes to complete.” To help Iowa families, Iowa College Aid offers the following FAFSA filing tips. File the FAFSA whatever your financial situation. Even if you do not think you will qualify for need-based financial aid, you should still file the FAFSA. Many colleges require that you file the FAFSA to be considered for institutional aid, and in addition, you are required to complete a FAFSA to be eligible for federal Stafford loans. Completing the FAFSA does not obligate you to accept any of the aid offered. Never pay to file the FAFSA. You can file the FAFSA for free at www.fafsa.gov. Reputable free resources, including Iowa College Aid, are available to help. In addition, more than 70 College Goal Sunday events will be held throughout Iowa to provide one-on-one assistance with FAFSA filing. Dates and locations of the events can be found at http://www.iowacgs.org/ en/201415_events/.
