AAFC's Local Food Infrastructure FundA new intake of the Local Food Infrastructure Fund has just opened!

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada is accepting applications from October 1 – October 31, 2024 (the intake period may close sooner if funding has been fully committed or if otherwise announced here).

The Local Food Infrastructure Fund (LFIF) supports projects that strengthen community food security and increase the availability and accessibility of local, nutritious, and culturally appropriate food through food production-focused activities for equity-deserving groups, particularly Indigenous and Black communities.

The 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.

Priority will be given to projects that predominantly serve equity-deserving groups, particularly those that are led by or focus on Indigenous and Black communities.
