The Fair Finance Fund is now accepting loan applications for their Winter Intake until Friday, February 18, 2022.

Loans are from $20,000 to $200,000, and include up to 10 hours of mentorship and business assistance during the loan period.

The Fair Finance Fund is a non-profit social finance fund dedicated to providing loans and mentorship services to local food and farm enterprises that value strong local food systems, local economies, and a healthy planet.

Since 2019, the Fund has disbursed over $1 million in loans across Ontario.

The Fair Finance Fund explains that as a loan client:

  • You support Ontario’s circular economy
  • You feed the success of your business and other local food and farm entrepreneurs
  • You support the economic growth of local agriculture, food processors and food businesses
  • You help secure a resilient food future for Ontario

If you know a local food or farm business experiencing barriers to capital or looking for financing to purchase equipment, complete a major project, or improve/expand their operations, please share.
