A supplier is someone whose role is to supply food. If they don’t share in decision-making about the project they would be considered a collaborator. An example of this would be a farmer who is paid for their products and has no other role in the project.
If a farmer, or other type of supplier was also part of project work such managing distribution logistics, budgeting, etc., they would be taking an active role in project management and would be considered a partner.

The Request for Applications states that the priorities for this program include distributing food in the same community as it was grown. One portion of the application asks applicants to define community – that could be geographic communities, cultural communities, etc. It is up to the applicant to decide what their definition of community is and describe how their project will create alignment between the food producers and the communities receiving the food.

Either scenario would be an expansion of existing work. The idea is to build upon work that is already being done. If the project proposal is to purchase twice as much food, that’s an expansion of the existing program. The expansion activities would need to be explained as a part of the application.
