Farmers’ markets can apply for up to $15,000 until Jan.
Lana Popham, provincial minister of agriculture, food and fisheries, said in a release that the funding will help farmers’ markets stay open and operate during emergencies so British Columbians can access the foods on which they count.
Eligible applicants include non-profit groups, co-operatives, for-profit corporations, local governments and First Nations operating farmers’ markets that primarily sell provincial food and beverage products.
