Organizations like the Dartmouth North Community Food Centre and Hope Blooms are doing incredible work to reduce food insecurity in our communities.
- In this spirit, our Government is stepping up to support the efforts of community-based organizations to strengthen local food production across the country!
- So great to have the Hon. Marie-Claude Bibeau, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food in Nova Scotia today to highlight our Government’s $50 million Local Food Infrastructure Fund!
- Over the next 5 years, this Fund will support community-led projects at urban gardens, food banks, community kitchens, farmer’s markets and more!
The grant application period opens on August 15:
