The Fair Finance Fund has just announced the launch of the Nourish Fund, an initiative by Inclusive Prosperity.

Nourish Fund currently offers three loan products for growers and producers of varying enterprise sizes and business development stages. Loans are available from as low as $1,000 for small-scale growers and businesses, all the way up to $100,000 for established enterprises looking to expand or grow, as well as loans especially designed for non-profit initiatives operating in Scarborough’s food and farm communities.

By addressing historical inequities in access to capital, the Nourish Fund aims to help build a more just food system through investment in sustainable, community-rooted businesses.

Eligible applicants include urban farms, food-based co-ops, and food entrepreneurs with at least two years of activity.
