The Guelph Tool Library in Guelph, Ont., has received a Peavey Industries Community Agriculture Grant valued at $20,000. The funding will support the Guelph Urban Food Initiative, which includes a seed library and community garden.
The award was the result of a national contest in support of community agriculture projects across Canada. Peavey distributes a total of $100,000 each year to grants in support of projects in that field.
“We applaud the contributions made by the Guelph Tool Library in fostering a sense of holistic community health and are excited to support the Urban Food Initiative,” Andrea Dillingham-Lacoursiere, Peavey’s community engagement co-ordinator, said in a release.
