Farm Credit Canada is accepting applications from registered charities, non-profit organizations and First Nations, Métis and Inuit governments/communities in rural Canada for the FCC AgriSpirit Fund.
The fund supports capital projects that enrich the lives of residents in communities with fewer than 150,000 people. A total of $1.5 million in funding is available. Projects can receive between $10,000 and $25,000.
Examples of projects include greenhouses, community gardens and other agriculture and food-related initiatives, refrigeration and equipment to support food waste reduction and recovery, projects that improve accessibility and inclusion or upgrades that reduce a building’s energy footprint.
The application deadline is May 15.

FCC will announce the selected projects in the fall.
