LP first established the Community Agriculture Grant in 2013. As a business, we
invest in your communities and consider them ours as well. By giving back and
funding new initiatives to benefit the communities we live and work in, we
foster deep roots and ultimately help our communities and neighbors.
Our Community Agriculture Grant awards funds to projects dedicated to innovative community-building and agriculturally focused initiatives that will help strengthen local areas, towns, or cities. Each year this grant will award up to a total of $100,000 to registered non-profit organizations or groups of individuals that have recognized a need and then organized, developed, and communicated a strategy to achieve their vision.
Examples of applications include community gardens, green spaces, interpretive centers, agricultural programs, recreation spaces, and rural enhancements.
Awarded: $40,000
With the $40,000 in funding, the School Gardens Project can expand further to allow even more classrooms to embed agriculture in their curriculum. Every year, it inspires more than 70,000 youth in Saskatchewan to develop a stronger connection to the food production system, while also fostering their aspirations to potentially join the industry in the future.
The $25,000 grant awarded to AgScape will catalyze their efforts in bringing comprehensive agricultural education to more students, thereby deepening their understanding of the food system's social, economic, and environmental aspects. Their work not only educates but also inspires, and we look forward to seeing the positive impact of their programs in shaping a more sustainable and informed future.
Awarded: $20,000
The $20,000 grant will enable the camp to offer hands-on learning experiences in gardening and food security, thus cultivating the next generation of 'Urban Gardeners.' We believe this project will have a lasting impact, teaching children valuable life skills and instilling in them a love for nature and sustainability.
