farmers fund
Welcome to the African Canadian Farmers Fund, a ground-breaking capital fund dedicated to agricultural investment for African Canadians. We are facilitating African Canadians’ success in the food and farm sector, dismantling barriers formed by systemic racism, and creating an inclusive farm sector by offering support in governance, operations, and lending.
Invest with Impact
Your investment today will build opportunities for African Canadian farmers, supporting wealth creation and equitable economic empowerment. Join a growing community of impact investors who value diversity, inclusion, and shared prosperity.
“Throughout history, African Canadian farmers have experienced discrimination, land loss, and institutional barriers that hindered their ability to acquire and retain farmland on equal terms with their Caucasian counterparts. The African Canadian Farmers Fund strives to facilitate autonomy, stability, and opportunities for generational wealth accumulation amongst African Canadians, while fostering economic independence and community development. By addressing historical injustices, we promote social equity, contributing to a more inclusive and sustainable agricultural sector.”
- Afua Asantewaa, Executive Director
