<<Construct small edible landscapes and gardens for the elderly to have access to healthy food and a rewording hobby.>> I know someone in SLO who is also working on this. She (Courtney) tried for a grant but was unsuccessful; perhaps with your grant connections you can help each other out.
This is what she wrote in her profile:
<<The mission of SLO Food will address socio-economic issues in California agriculture by providing outreach and education as well as delivering healthy, affordable, locally grown food to the under-served populations in San Luis Obispo county.>>
Please check her out at:

She is also an ad rep for edibleSLO.
