Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4B

“Urban farm: our educational production farms engage residents in experiential education programs, hands-on food production and volunteerism. Mcg staff operate the farms, working with hundreds of volunteers and numerous local youth groups to engage them in urban food production and education. Gardeners access educational programs and supplies; thousands of pounds of produce is grown and distributed into the community each year. A social enterprise, the farm demonstrates how healthy, local food can be an economic stimulator. Mobile market: our farm stand on wheels, operating through the spring, summer, and fall, provides culturally appropriate produce in low access areas. Customers can access produce for free using various incentive programs including the massachusetts healthy incentive program. Starting in 2020, we also included online produce shopping options, as well as a weekly community supported agriculture program, offering a weekly allotment of seasonal produce for households throughout lowell.”

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

“The organization, incorporated under chapter 180 of the massachusetts general laws as a tax exempt entity, has been granted tax-exempt status under internal revenue code section 501(c)(3), and is, therefore, generally exempt from federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements. The organization is required by asc 740-10, "income taxes," to evaluate and disclose tax positions that could have an effect on the organization's financial statements. The organization reports its activities to the internal revenue service and to the commonwealth of massachusetts on an annual basis. These informational returns are generally subject to audit and review by the governmental agencies for a period of three years after filing. Substantially all of the organization's income, expenditures and activities relate to its exempt purpose, therefore, management has determined that the organization is not subject to unrelated business income taxes and will continue to qualify as a tax exempt not-for-profit entity.”
