Your real odds
The Large Scale Projects pool was $19.2 million over two years, with grants between $150K and $500K, meaning roughly 38 to 128 projects could be funded across Canada.
This is a competitive national program that weights equity-deserving groups, and projects not selected in one intake were eligible to reapply to the next, which signals the bar is real.
What it takes
Confirm eligibility: production element, 2+ eligible partners, and 25% cost-share capacity1–2 days
Build your project proposal including infrastructure needs, partnership agreements, and community food security outcomes2–4 weeks
Submit application through Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's online portal during the intake window1–2 days
Worth knowing
Up to 50% of your required 25% cost-share can be in-kind contributions valued at fair market value, so you are not on the hook for cash at the full share amount.
