Trillium Foundation awards $75,000 to Wikwemikong Foodshare

Now that Spring has arrived the Wikwemikong’s Foodshare program will be able to get underway, thanks to an Ontario Trillium grant.

The program will encourage and assist community members to start growing their own food locally.

Algoma-Manitoulin- Kapuskasing MPP Michael Mantha announced the $75,000 seed grant to Wikwemikong’s Foodshare program on behalf of the Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) as part of Earth Day celebrations late last month.

Foodshare is partnering with several local organizations to also encourage youth to take part in self-sustaining gardening.
