BC Agri-Tourism is an initiative of the Agri-Food Futures Fund. $650,000 have been allocated to serve the diverse range of operators offering agriculture-oriented tourism experiences to people exploring BC. Agri-tourism encompasses a wide range of activities, from accommodations and retail sales to recreational activities and farm tours.
The available funding remaining under this initiative is limited. To access available funding, you are advised to contact the Program Officer as soon as possible. Funding will be allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis. Applications received after all funding has been allocated will be redirected to other appropriate funding programs and initiatives.
