Growing Projects and Community Events

Through growing projects, groups of farmers and farm supporters plant, tend and harvest a crop, then sell it on the Canadian market, donating the proceeds to the Foodgrains Bank to be used in the work of responding to world hunger. The impact their hard work has for families and communities experiencing hunger around the world is remarkable, and we are beyond grateful for their contributions! Local businesses often help by donating inputs such as seed, chemicals and fertilizer, and services such as trucking, insurance or promotion. Not only does this help keep costs down, it fosters a sense of community spirit as local people work together to help hungry people in the developing world. We've also included an updated map of all the registered growing projects and community events across Canada - look for one near you!
