SUMMARY:Local Food Infrastructure Fund – Small Scale Projects
DESCRIPTION:The program has 2 components\nThe LFIF aims to support locally-driven projects that will help improve community food security through the purchase and installation of infrastructure/equipment that will increase access to local\, nutritious and culturally appropriate food. \nPriority will be given to projects that predominantly serve equity-deserving groups\, particularly those that are led by or focus on Indigenous and Black communities. \nFunding\nThe maximum Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) grant toward a project will normally not exceed $100\,000. Applications under $25\,000\, after ineligible costs have been removed\, will not be considered for funding. \nApplicants who don’t receive funding through the 2024-2025 intake may reapply to the 2025-2026 intake period. \nCost-sharing\nAAFC may provide up to 100% in funding toward eligible project costs. Food production elements-related eligible costs may include\, but are not limited to: \n\nBeekeeping equipment\nCommunity gardens\nFood forests\nGarden boxes/beds/tools\nGreenhouses\nHunting\, fishing equipment (may include all-terrain vehicles\, snowmobiles and boats)\nIrrigation systems\, wells\, solar panels\, composting systems\nSeeds\, soil\, compost (initial year only)\nTractors and other heavy farm equipment\nVertical and/or hydroponic gardens\n\nLEARN MORE
